Summary: Trust me, just buy it!!
Comment: I referred religiously to only this book for my study. It makes for a very interesting read. Most of the questions were based on this book. And I am happy to say that I scored 85% after just studying for a couple of hours for one month.
If you want to refer to just one book, this is it.

Summary: Best book for SCWCD
Comment: This book is just too good. I had thought of writing this review as soon I had cleared my exam this July with 92%. My apologies for this delay.
If you would like to brush up your servlet/jsp/ tag libraries and appear for the SCWCD exam, then look no further. This is the book.
With Head First's unique style of presentation, I just loved reading this book.
I would say the book can improve more on examples and exercises. But whatever it has it really drives it in and makes your fundamentals solid.
The exams after each chapter are solid with good answers and very less errors or typos as found in other books of the same genre.
However the final exam in the book is much much tougher than the real one.
Enjoy

Summary: Very pleased!
Comment: I learned something in the first chapter. This is leading me by the hand, which is refreshing in a sea of new information. I am not even studying for the exam, but I chose this one over a couple of others and I'm glad I did!

Summary: A little schizo
Comment: Mind you, this book has a lot of good info, and I don't regret buying it. However, this book doesn't seem to know its own purpose. From the writing style, you can really tell it was written by different people. At times, it's a tutorial. The first several chapters walk you through an example beer selection app, but then you don't really do hands-on coding ever again, and the app isn't referenced again until the very end. In the middle, the material seems geared towards passing the exam, but there is a lot of information, some well organized and some poorly. The later chapters are verbose and not as helpfully repetitive as the former chapters. It's a good supplemental book, but shouldn't be your main JSP book.
