An SCJP 1.4 certification primer
Details you should be aware of before starting the prepration.Info from the IBM site
Tips for passing the SCJP
No short list of observations about the SCJP exam is sufficient as a complete study guide. To be fully prepared, you'll need to spend some time with at least one book on SCJP certification, as well as some of the other resources mentioned in previous sections. The tips that follow are, however, essential to your success in passing the SCJP exam:
Many of the questions in the SCJP 1.4 exam will require code-based answers, so practice coding as much as possible in preparation for the exam.
Some objectives have been strengthened in SCJP 1.4. Be sure that you're well-versed in the topics of wrapper classes, collections, asserts (newly added in 1.4 exam) and the methods hashCode() and equals().

Some aspects of the Java programming language do not come up as often in real life as they do in the exam, which can trip you up if you're not prepared. Be sure you understand how operators work in Java code -- particularly the shift operator.

Multithreading is a difficult topic, and it will come up in the SCJP 1.4. You should know the different ways to construct a thread in a Java program, have a good understanding of synchronization, and be familiar with the functionality of the different methods used in creating a multithreaded application. In all instances, you should be prepared to deliver code-based answers.
Be sure you've memorized the inheritance hierarchy of the Exceptions and Collections classes. It will come in handy.
The AWT (Abstract Windowing Toolkit) objective has been removed in 1.4. SCJP 1.4 contains no questions about GUI programming. The I/O objective has also been removed.
The objective on Garbage collection will have questions asking how many objects are eligible for garbage collection at a particular point in the program. The answers to such questions cannot be verified with the help of examples because you cannot force the garbage collector to run. So attempt as many questions as possible on this topic from various mock exams; compare your answers to test your knowledge.
