SCDJWS
Yesterday I took this SCDJWS 5 (310-230) exam and I got around 70% 
(45 questions correct /65).Most of the questions are related to design architecture and theory part 
. Only few questions (may be 2 or 3) had code snippets, related to creation of SOAP and SAX processor. I didn’t find a single code snippet for JAX WS(thousands of annotations 
),XSLT,JAXB,DOM,JAXP,JAXR,REST 
..Check out interoperability issues when we integrating Java Web service with WCF.
I would like to thank JavaRanch Forum for the precious information I got from it as well as to IVAN (who shared his reference material guide) , Sang Shin(Java Passion) and Mikalai Zaikin ..
How long did you prepare for this exam?
Almost 2-3 months. I have tried each and every topic with examples (from creation of xml schema… to final WSIT integration) 
.
Pass mark for 310 -230 exam?
42 % 
Material which I have used?
I am newbie to this web service. So I have started from level zero.
I started from here http://www.javapassion.com/webservices/index.html , it’s a wonderful site which have PPT for all the materials as well as it has home work for each course. Once I completed the above stuffs, I gone through Ivans guide (An excellent reference material).
