<p>Use your textbook and Barron’s to get the idea down, but the only way to actually learn is to practice. <a href=“http://www.Codingbat.com%5B/url%5D”>www.Codingbat.com</a> provides little exercises in programming to help you practice ideas; you can use programming projects from your textbook (usually there are things at the end of the chapter) to help you improve on bringing all the ideas together.</p>
<p>The thing about the multiple choice section is that it tests your ability to follow code, rather than write code–though writing code helps you understand things much better. That’s why I would use the MC questions at the end of each section in Barron’s as well as any you can find online or in other test preps to help you practice that. The issue, for me, is finishing the MC section within the time limit, and practicing has improved my time enormously.</p>
<p>You can find tutorial videos on youtube for concepts, as well as things on websites like this one [Java</a> Programming](<a href=“http://introcs.cs.princeton.edu/10elements/]Java”>Java Programming) this one [Java[/url</a>] and this one [url=<a href=“JDK 20 Documentation - Home”>The Java™ Tutorials]The</a> Java™ Tutorials](<a href=“'java' Forum Topics | DaniWeb”>'java' Forum Topics | DaniWeb) --but look out, because sometimes you might come across things that are more advanced than we need to know for the exam…though they tend to come in handy. :)</p>
