JQuest ver 0.9 an exam simulator for SCJP that has been designed using JDK1.2.2, thus you need to have JRE 2 or JDK 2 in order to run JQuest. In future release, i'll provide a native executable for Windows platform (i'm not an ardent fan of Bill Gates, but....).

MORE INFO
=========

Currently JQuest is a freeware, and it contains 90 top class questions, covering all the intricacies of Java in its database. The questions are generated at random and the user has got an option of grading the test at any point of time, very much similar to the actual exam. The tester provides the facility of having a Step-by-Step review of all the questions at the end of the exam.
