The following are the most commonly asked questions in a Java interview. These are all actual exam question which I have been asked in various interviews (around 20 interviews) and are in fact have been asked repeatedly in those interviews be it telephonic or f2f interviews. Even now I also ask questions from these topics and you can expect to be asked 5-10 questions out of these.
I am not providing answers for these as it will be reinventing of wheel. You can Google these questions as it is and find answers to them. Don't forget to write sample programs around each of these question. I am sure you will come to know more if you practice yourself.
