OCA: Oracle Certified Associate Java SE 8 Programmer I Study Guide (Exam 1Z0 - 808) Paperback – 23 March 2015

this book is helpful to clear OCA exam.It provided lots of similar questions and online assessments as well as mentioned on the cover pages.Do buy this only if you have done your basics theory on Java 8 using some other books such as headfirst or complete reference etc or any other book.Remember this is more of question bank and revise book so use it wisely after you clear your basics

Excellent book and covers majority of the concepts in all areas through several cases. The best part is that every case has detailed explanation as such why the code behaves the way it does. Even the practice examples have answers which are very nicely explained.Also the exam tips at the end of the book is an additional value add. Thanks a lot Jeanne Boyarsky and Amazon for publishing and hosting this book!!Thanks and Regards,Ahir.

This is one of the best books one can start with for OCA Java Exam. The book covers all the topics in a very lucid language. Though there are some errors but one can refer this link [...] while reading the book.It provides with three mock exams which you can give online too. Additionally, there are flash cards available online to review main topics. Altogether, I found this book worth every penny.:)

While this book can be referred by beginners, it is recommended to have fairly sufficient experience with java. This book helps you fill in the gap you might have with certain concepts and prepares you for the certification.If you are comfortable with Java, want to be certified then buy this without a doubt.

Great book. Helped me get through the 1z0-808 certification exam. Just combine it with any online simulator and you are good to go. And yes kudos to Amazon for timely delivery. Top stuff really!!

The book is good, but can be much better.1 - The language can be more precise since it is a certification guide it should have small and easy to remember sentence formation, the grammar mistakes makes it worse.2 - The language used should be engaging enough for studying compare it with any K & B books and you will know the difference.Since it is the first version I hope it will improve over the time and since there are no other options for Java 8, this book is good The K & B books are anytime better then this.Seller did a wonderful job on his part before time delivery and follow up for the satisfaction & feedback makes it experience worth mentioning.

Its a wonderful book. Anyone who wants to learn java 8 or do a java certification can start from this. Concepts are explained clearly.

Ich bin Azubi in Fachrichtung Anwendungsentwicklung im 2. Lehrjahr und habe dieses Buch zur Vorbereitung auf das erste OCA Zertifikat bestellt. Man liest einige Meinungen hier auf Amazon und merkt nur das man es nie allen rechtmachen kann. Manchen scheint das Buch zu knapp geschrieben und unvollständig, kann ja sein, dann lesen Sie doch bitte Java ist auch eine Insel...., manch anderer sagt es wäre zuviel drumrum und nicht kompakt, auch da kann ich nur dieses Inselbuch empfehlen um zu sehen das dem nicht so ist.Wenn man schon eine Programmiersprache kennengelernt hat und keinen 1000 Seiten Wälzer braucht wo noch einmal erklärt wird was der unterschied zwischen einer Variablen und einer Funktion ist, ist mit diesem Werk gut bedient. So ziemlich alles was man (zumindest für die Prüfung) braucht wird kurz, knapp und verständlich erläutert.Die Produkte von enthuware sind mir ebenfalls bekannt und diese wurden von mir auch zur Vorbereitung auf das OCA Examen benutzt und wenn man das Buch wirklich durchliest (nicht durchblättern, lesen) wird man jede Frage Problemlos richtig beantworten können.Das einzige was ich nicht so toll fand waren die Codebeispiele, die gerne am Ende der Seite anfangen sodass man hin und her blättern muss, ansonsten top!

This was a great book which I used as the basis of study for my Oracle Java SE 8 Associate Certification which I passed with 90%. It’s easy to read, and has good code examples to demonstrate the various concepts. I read the book three times over the course of a couple of months in preparation.One important piece of advice : reading this book alone will not prepare you for the questions in the exam. It’s absolutely vital to take lots and lots of practice tests which can be found online at various sources. The questions are very tricky and the only way you will get good at answering them is by practicing lots of them.Also do some mock exams online which give you the same number of questions and time as the real exam as that will teach you to guage and manage your time well.So studying this book along with lots of exam practise and you will be all set to get your certification.
