Re: OCP practice tests - Are they worth it?

I really think the practice q's are essential for success!! Don't take any of the classes, do it on your own with books and practice q's. Make sure you download a free trial of the Oracle product your studying.

I take #3 test Friday at 2:00!!!! Ahhhhhhhh! Wish me luck!

Keep studying, improve your professional worth >:) (more $)
