In previous certification exams, the list of exam objectives tended to include specific topics, classes, and APIs that you needed to know for the exam. For example, take a look at an objective for the OCP 8 exam (1Z0-809):

 Use BufferedReader, BufferedWriter, File, FileReader, FileWriter, FileInputStream, FileOutputStream, ObjectOutputStream, ObjectInputStream, and PrintWriter in the java.io package.

Now compare it with the equivalent objective for the OCP 17 exam (1Z0-829):

 Read and write console and file data using I/O Stream.

Notice the difference? The older version is more detailed and describes specific classes you need to understand. The newer version is a lot vaguer. It also gives the exam writers a lot more freedom to insert a new feature without having to update the list of objectives.
