Re: Question about certification of ORACLE DBA

Each test is for a particular competency. The test questions are formulated from the Oracle Education documentation provided for each class that covers that particular competentcy. You would be wise to find someone who has taken a class (ie backup & recovery, tuning, etc) and has the documentation from the class. In addition, there is a sample test that can be purchased that is quite helpful. Good luck.
