Contents of 1z0-051 exam in all-in-one book?

Hello everyone,
I am new at this community and I am thinking off doing de OCA exam. For this reason I have recently bought the "oca/ocp oracle database 11g all-in-one exam guide" but I don't know which part refers to de SQL Fundamentals (1z0-051). It is possble to know what chapters refers to each exam 1Z0-051, 1Z0-052, 1Z0-053 ? Maybe it is a foolish question but I have been looking for the answer unsuccessfully for hours.
Thank you very much in advance,
Ferran

FerranWelcome.
It is really important to find the authorative source for the exam topics:
Goto:
http://certification.oracle.com
.... and look up those exams and their associated topics there. Exam topics can sometimes change after books are published, so it is important to double check on Oracle's Website.
I've not looked at that combined guide myself, but the first part will realate to the SQL topics of 1z0-051. The switch to the database archecture of part 2 should be obvious. The chapters tend to align well with the topics on the exam website.

  • Need help on 1z0-051 exam

    Hi everyone,
    I'm planning to take 1z0-051 exam as a first step towards getting OCA certification.But i can't go to a prometric test center on weekdays because i can't get a leave.
    So i'm planning to take this exam online from my office only.So i need to know the payment methods for this exam.Can i use my debit card for the payment or do i need credit card only or is there any other method of payment.
    Please help me on this.
    Thanx.

    Someone will give you exact advice on this .... but I would simply go through the process until I was asked for payment and then cancel out! Try it and find out approach!
    This would also ensure all your site registrations etc are in place.
    I think if your taking online then get to a place where you cant be disturbed and at a time your internet connection is unlikely to go down .. you can reconnect but you will lose time. And allow a little bit more than than for the exam.
    Good luck.
    I suppose You could also checkout vouchers at [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=156&p_org_id=28&lang=US] ... make certain you have your correct country selected and they come up in your currency. forum moderator may give advice later ... he' likely to checkout in us working hours.

    Preparation time depends on the individual and how much time they have. Do not be surprised if your preparation time for 1z0-051is shorter than that for 1z0-052. Also be aware if you want to move to DBA OCP you need mandatory training at some point

    I seem to recall at some point that exam vouchers were not transferable .... this may certainly apply to some voucher types ( I guess particularly WDP ones between individuals). But I dont have a reference URL for where I think I saw this.
    It is just possible that you previously looked at the exam pricee in a low cost country ... and are now viewing it in a high cost country. Or the change may be due to volatile exchange rates.

  • How to pass 1Z0-051 exam

    I prepared to this exam well by reading and implementing the book topics of "OCA Oracle Database 11g:SQL Fundamentals I Exam Guide (Exam 1Z0-051)" + plus articles reads from Oracle website itself; but unfortunately i failed twice, the reason isn't that i did not digest the SQL material or found hard topics to understand, but it is more about the timing of the exam which it limit my thinking process and make me confuse to select the right answer; as you have 70 questions to read, understand, deduce and then answer, as in average time for each question is one minutes and twenty seconds.
    I admitted that sometimes i have problem in calculation, but i believe if time is aloud more to me i would easily figure out the question.
    I need some advice and instruction here if that possible.
    Thanks in advance

    and this [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=179]
    You don't mention if you took this test online .... for various reason my personal opinion is people may be under more time pressure taking it online. I have read somewhere also that if you retake an exam within 5 days you are statisitically almost highly likely to fail it again.
    The time element is obviously one part of these exams. 1z0-051 can be done within the time with a little to spare.
    Not all questions will take the same amount of time.
    In a proctored exam you have the following aids available to you:-
    - A timer indicating time left
    - The ablility to mark a question for review later.
    - The ability to leave a question blank.
    - The ability to make notes on wipe board.
    Decide a strategy of how you are going to approach questions. For instance i may choose to:
    - If I know the answer to a question straight away, mark it, double check then move to next question.
    - If I am unsure mark the question, make best possilble answer, note on my wiprepad any certaily wrong answers.
    - If I think I am going to take too long on a question (more than 2 mins) make notes of where I'm at, mrk it for review and move on.
    Basically you should be able to get through some questions fairly quickly. Others may take longer.
    You may also be resented with exhibits and things ..... its very easy to take too much time looking at all the information and getting overwhelmed.
    Read the question, elminate wrong answers and move on as quickly as possilbe.
    The should already have been practice exams on the CDROM with the book you have bought. These are less useful the more you use them, as you remember the answers.
    Additional practice tests can be purchased from [http://www.oracle.com/global/us/education/certification/sts.html] (Either buy transcender or SelftestSoftware, not both).
    You may be able to speed up your calculations with time, however if you are having trouble with them permanently then perhaps this is not the career for you, as you may have trouble if you get a job also.
    However you may find with practice it all comes into place and you speed up.

  • What is another schema name in oracle 1z0-051 exam ?

    hi all
    i want to prepare oracle 1z0-051 , i study SQL tutorial (HR schema) , and i have seen some  questions. but some of tables is like (sales , customers ,promotion ...ets)
    What are the schemas in this exam ? by the way all samples schema install in my database
    and thx advace

    In the exam you will get the snippet of the code that includes table structure and may be data in some tables in some questions. But every time they are different. so my advice is that you need to understand how to read a table definition and interpret. dont just mug up the things. Go to oracle documentation and read and try get the concept right.
    I followed the book 'Oracle 11g- SQL Fundamental Exam Guide (Exam 1Z0-051)' it nearly covered all the topics and have good examples at the end of the chapter. happy studying.
    You cane refer to 'http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/sql/11g-schemamanagement-089869.html'
    and 'Managing Schema Objects'

  • Study source for 1Z0-051 exam Oracle11g SQL Fundamentals certification

    Greetings,
    What are some good sources for this exam that are legit. I have the OCA/OCP Oracle Database 11g All-in-One Exam guide, read the whole section regarding SQL and have practiced the test questions until I scored 100% multiple times. Yet (with all humility), I failed the exam. I don't want to cheat and will keep trying until I pass it the right way! I'm going to keep studying the areas I need to really master., but I noticed that the real Exam was nothing like the practice exam. For me, the real exam was a lot trickier and there were a few questions that the book didn't cover. The guy working at the test center recommended testking but upon further research, some sites consider using testking as cheating. I have not purchased any new study guides and would like feedback to some legit study guides. Is the transcender study guide legit and worth it? Please pardon me if this question has been asked a dozen times. I will scour the forums for more info regarding this but also wanted some direct feedback.
    Thank you,
    A mon

    Thanks for the link and the advice. Very helpful! And yes, it got to the point where I knew some of the answers before I finished reading the questions.
    Thanks,
    A monI was going to say possibly the cheapest way is buy the sybex Book : ISBN-13: 9780470395127 which is like the Watson Book ... but it isn't that cheap andalso coves 1z0-052 which you don't need.
    ( Selftest Sofware is reputed to be good, Transcender a little better (they are both Kaplan Brans and overlap common material). Ucertify may be cheapter but quality may be less. And make sure you get the right site and not a phishing link pretending to be them.
    .... wsa it you who i said to try the exam and see where you were really at ? .. if so sorry and better luck next time. Perhaps though it is an opportunity to revise study technique.
    See: http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/entry/question_of_the_day_how_to_pre
    .... Doing your own flash cards and notes can be useful.
    I always regard practice questions as precious and leave it as late as possible in study before doing questions.
    (If you must peek ahead choose a chapter just before half way through the book and do end of chapter questions for that only).
    But I won't even do end of chapter practice questions until I think I know the whole exam topics and have notes on all the material.
    Only when I think I know it all will I do even end of chapter questions.
    And I wont do them if I have read up on the topics during the day. I will wait until the next day.
    And after doing end of chapter results I re-read the chapter and topics and practice. But I wont redo those questions for a few days
    And only when I get good enough practice score from the chapter do I take a full practice test.
    Basic principle is concentrate on learning and use the precious study ids to fill the gaps. It's a little slower getting there that way but these is more chance of a pass.

  • 1Z0-051 exam (11gR2) - Oracle Press 11gR1

    The pages on the Oracle Web site state that the exam is based on the 11gR2. I am not sure when this changed as I am sure I checked in Nov 10 and it was 11gR1. There is currently no Oracle Press material to cover the most recient release of the database. If I study from the Oracle Press OCA 11g Exam Guide (1Z0-052) am I on safe ground? 11gR2 has some very interesting new features. Will these be included? The exam subject detail doesn't really go down the required level.

  • 1Z0-051 exercises for preparing the exam

    Hello, I'm preparing for the 1Z0-051 exam and It could be useful for me some link o similar with exercises about SQL.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards.

    What you are asking for and what the original poster was is 'guided practice'.  The only thing that really fits that description is lab exercises. Generally these are only created as part of a class.  I don't know of anyone that creates labs and puts them online.
    I always encourage candidates to load Oracle XE on their computer and practice with the topics covered on certification exams, If you have any certification book for 1Z0-051, it will have some SQL examples inside it.  They probably won't be labs which tell you exactly what to do in a step-by-step fashion. However, you can execute the same SQL on your machine if you have an Oracle instance.  The Oracle sample schemas are available online.  My study guides have a sample schema that can be downloaded from my website.  I believe the Oracle Press 051 book likewise has a schema (or possibly it uses the sample schemas).  Just typing in the examples straight from the book is a start.  You can then play with those examples -- varying them to see what works and what does not.  For example -- if an example shows a multi-table select the INNER JOIN syntax, take that SQL and modify it to the USING syntax or the NATURAL JOIN syntax.
    The 1Z0-051 exam is all about the capabilities and syntax of SQL... basically what can and cannot be done. Much of this is really memorization of the syntax and certain facts -- like what clauses a subquery can appear in. Executing working SQL and then modifying it to see what works and what does not can help to cement those facts in your memory.

  • Exam Guide: Exam 1Z0-051 (Oracle Press).

    Hi, I am planning to appear in the 1Z0-051 test. and got the book (OCA Oracle Database 11g SQL Fundamentals I Exam Guide: Exam 1Z0-051 (Oracle Press). this is an old copy, and does not have the CD with the sample exam.
    Are the questions on the exam CD same as at the end of the book, or are those different than those in the book. I don't want to buy the book, if I don't have to.

    Saying that you do not want to buy a book does not endear you to the auhors
    Nore that I am only a part author of that one, my colleague Roopesh was an equal (or greater) contributor.
    I have not gone through the material on the CD, but I was under the impression that it was the same as the printed content. Certainly what I have seen of all the illegal copies that criminals put up on web sites for thieves to download suggests that. THere are other sets of a few hundred questions on the McGraw-Hill website, I think if you can demonstrate that your copy is legal you will have access to them.
    Overall, I would make two suggestions. First, do not rely on dummy questions. They are not the real thing (which would be illegal) and all they do is lt you confirm that you have studied the relevant material. There is absolutely no point in repeating them unil you get all right, which is what some people do. Second, do not do that exam at all, it is out of date. Do the 1z0-061 exam insead. Roopesh's book http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0071820280 is excellent.

  • Is the Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Release 2 enough for preparing for the 1Z0-051 and 1Z0-144 Exams?

    I am planning on getting certified as an OCA PL\SQL developer. I will be teaching myself and I have all the material needed to prepare.
    Except, I don't have a database that I can solve exercises on and practice commands.
    The two exams I will be taking are the :
    1Z0-051 exam: Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I
    1Z0-144 exam: Oracle Database 11g: Program with PL/SQL
    So is the Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Release 2 is enough ?
    If it is not what other options do I have (I am running Windows 8.1) ?

    Yes -- 11gXE should be sufficient for practicing the vast majority of the skills required for those two exams.  I *think* that PARALLEL is not enabled in XE, so you could not test the functionality referred to in the "Use NOCOPY hint, PARALLEL ENABLE hint and DETERMINISTIC clause" topic of 1Z0-144.  I don't consider that to be a significant problem, however.  The material from the manual should suffice for the questions you'll see.
    As for what other options you have, you could download and install VirtualBox (free from Oracle).  You could then make a virtual machine on your Windows 8.1 machine and install Oracle Linux (free from Oracle).  You could then download and install Oracle Enterprise for Linux and install it on your virtual machine (allowable under the licensing when used for learning purposes only).  I have a similar setup on my Windows 7 laptop that I use when I absolutely have to test some feature that requires Oracle Enterprise.  Mind you, when I have the VM running on my system... it is ssssslllllloooooowwwwww because of the memory requirements.  I talk about using virtual machines as a certification aid in the following article:
