Not bad, but can't stand on its own. 
. This can be a good supplement to "Sun Certified Programmer & Developer for Java 2" by Sierra and Bates.
Too many typos
You certainly don't need confusion when trying to study for this exam. Too many typos in the practice exams (such as the upper-case 'I' in question 15 of Exam 1) make this a risky choice for the exam. The content is good though and it seems to targetthe necessary concepts. .
Waste of Time and Money 
When I read the book, I did not feel confident that these were the actual questions that I would see on the exam. This is the worst certification book ever written. I also did not learn anything from the book. I stopped reading this book, and went on to read Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates' Java 2 Certification book. That is much, much better, and it is written by the exam writers themselves. The questions are more like what is on the exam, and I am actually learning Java concepts that I never knew. The cram exam book is a waste of money, and more importantly, a waste of time. .
