Re: Oracle Certification Practice Tests?

Some suggestions from on that has passed:

Use the "section specific" (ie Backup and Recovery) option of the Oracle pratice tests and go down each one individually.

Set you own pass grade on each of the pratice tests at least 80%. Setup each test for 40 Questions and 60 Min of Time.

On the Test Day:

RELAX. The idea is to Pass, not to get a perfect score. Since most of the test have a border line of between 68 and 72%. Setting you own bar at 80% on the practice questions will help here.

Use the Mark feature of the Exam.
If you dont know an answer, Select your best guess AND check the "Mark Item" box. This will allow you a chance to review at the end of the test. Sometimes the answer for one question will appear on another question.

You have plenty of time. Averaging out the Questions/Time will give you 1.5 minutes per question. Since you WILL know the answer to many of them, That means you will have some additional time to review.

Any questions, please E-Mail me. (I can not give you specific questions).
