Yes, I've done it in the beta program. I didn't find it very difficult but
then again I've run the 9i New Features for Administrators course around the
world 7 or 8 times before doing it. The material covers everything that's
in that course, including Advanced Replication and Workspaces.
One thing I did like about the exam (if you can like anything about exams)
was that it has more scenario based questions, such as here's the disk
layout for the database, where's the contention problem? Much better for
testing real ability than answer these multiple choice questions.
