Changes to the Java Standard Edition 6 Programmer Certified Professional Exam (SCJP 6)

Earlier this month, Oracle announced that Java, Oracle Solaris, MySQL, and NetBeans certification exams will be offered through a new test delivery partner – Pearson VUE – and will no longer be available through Prometric test centers. This includes the Java Standard Edition 6 Programmer Certified Professional Exam, also known as SCJP 6.

 

The move to Pearson VUE is also accompanied with some changes in the SCJP 6 exam itself, these changes are as follows:

  • Exam number is now 1Z0-851 (Previously 310-065).
  • Exam duration is now 150 minutes (Previously 210 minutes).
  • Number of questions is now 60 (Previously 72 questions).
  • Passing score is now 61% (Subject to change) (Previously 65%).
  • No Drag and Drop questions.

For more information about the exam, see this.
