Re: Passing the OCP Exam

I just took the exams at the Oracle Openworld in Berlin - it was only 50 euro/exam , so I took them for the fun of it - because I don't have much time, I just read some chapters (like the RMAN crap) in the Oracle 8i DBA certification guide the night before ... http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0672317850/qid%3D982105090/107-875932 6-0381347
The exams are pretty easy to pass if you have a couple of years experience and walk through the book to give you some pointers ... Also you can download some guides at www.buzzbrain.com.

cheers,
Kurt
