Exam Info

Well, the Solaris exam comprises of multiple choices with radio buttons, check boxes (telling you the magical no), fill in the blank and drag and drop. 57 questions subdivided into 15 sections.

Bill Calkin book is the resource I used with practice questions from the yahoo group download. Bought an OEM sparc for about $800 to use it in my daily home usage as I learn. Heavy practice (3 hours average for one month) not only on the certification area but also on end-user command. Then formally goes through the book alongside with hands-on practice for 2 weeks and another 1 week on the questions reverting to the system to verify. Taken last Friday and not bad result for a not experienced Solaris chap, 10 section full mark with 5 60% to 90%. Average is 89%. So I could say Bill Calkin book suffices despite some negative comments on it.

Practice makes perfect

Can you suggest where I can get a fairly cheap Sun workstation to practice on? I have the javatutuor disk from Linux and the Exam Cram book, but i currently only have linux at home for practice.
