Before zooming into it like an EU06 read the FAQs and Preparation at http://certification.oracle.com
( I am sure I ought to be able to dig out a better description here ... but I'll leave you to search).
IMHO Although you can take this exam non proctored (online) there can be advantages (and disadvantages) taking it at a test center. (Advantages improve the closer you are to one!).
Its worth checking where your closest test center is anyway.

How to take online exam 1Z0-051?

Hi Oracle Community,

Online exam about 1Z0-051

Hi,
After preparing for 3 weeks, I would like to take an exam in 1Z0-051.
I prepared through 1Z0-051 exam guide. Is it enough to study for an exam or anyother oracle guide may need to take exam?
I need some practice tests also. So, please suggest me, for practice tests.
What are the procedures to take exam 1Z0-051 in home?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The exam guide comes with a practice test that you can do. There is also a 10 question sample on the exam page (http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=303&p_certName=SQ1Z0_051). Assuming you score highly (80%~) on both of those at the first attempt (doesn't count when you already know the answer) then I'd say you're ok to take it.
You can book the exam from Pearson Vue's website: http://www.pearsonvue.com/oracle/
If you're taking it from home then you specify "non-proctored" and go through the steps from there.

Passed 1Z0-051 -- is the score final?

Hi All,
I'm pursuing 'Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate' certification. Just finished ONLINE '1Z0-051 Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I'. After exam, I get a summary containing e.g. 'Passing Score 60%' and my actual score, which is 'Pass (67.3%)'.
According to what one can see on the official Oracle website describing 'Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I', 'Passing score subject to change'. How it relates to me? If I got an information after the exam confirming that I passed, could I believe that I really passed, or rather shoud wait for some kind of additional confirmation, as 'Passing score subject to change'?
Just a little confusion.

My understanding is:
Your score is final, you have taken an exam where the pass mark for the questions given to you was 60% and you have exceeded that.
Congratulations and well done!
So I believe your pass is forever (unless one were found to have cheated or have violated a non discloure agreement, in which case one could have the pass voided for that)
Oracle reserves the right at a future time to change the pass mark ar a future time if it is more appropriate, probably due to questions in the exam question pool being harder or easier.
I expect this provision on the website is to avoid someone complaining that they looked on the website before the exam and seen a passmark as 60%,
yet when they came to take it they found they had a exam with a passmark of 62% and they might feel they had a grounds for complaint.
The publishing of a guide pass mark on the oracle website is generally useful when comparing with the exam topics in determining whether to study for or preparedness to take an exam,
but it should be only one indicator; my personal opinion is to aim to study to be able to have a shot at all questions. From memory 1z0-147 Program with PL/SQL has a pass mark of 77% or so,
1z0-402 Enterprise Linux Fundamental of about 57%. To get the grade in the former the examiner is probably trying to ensure accurate understanding of specified exam topics, in the latter
the object might be not to worry so much if the examinee did not understand some of broader width of that exam topics as well. In addition beta testing would have determined a lot of people
were finding it hard to achieve on 1z0-402.

Forums and Books for 1Z0-051 Certification Test

I am starting to read my Certification book from Oracle Press on test 051, SQL.
What other forums or websites will I find helpful for this effort? I mean both Oracle approved and non-official Oracle forums. I am interested also in non-offical forums so people can say uncensored or candid things about the test or the products.
A good answer would be a list of the forums here on the Oracle website that will help as well as some websites or forums not on this website that are good for test 051 and the material I need to know.
I also want to know what certification books or manuals cover this material or test? Are there some other popular certification books for test 1Z0-051? Which Oracle manuals cover this material? Again a good answer would be a list of books and a list of manuals.
I read somewhere that the online Oracle Library now costs to access. Is this true? I am on a strict budget.
I read something about Oracle products on this website but as you might expect they only list Oracle products or approved products.

Obviously the SQL forum will help.

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

Edited by: user12108967 on Feb 15, 2010 2:02 PMI guess first check this: [http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/2008/10/question_of_the_day_how_to_pre.html]
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.

1Z0-051 newbie

i am planning to take the 1Z0-051 exam and i came accross this page:
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_051
looking at the 4 reccommended courses, looks like none of them are self-study? i HAVE to take the instructor-led course that costs at min of $1800 in order to clear this exam?
specifcally, this is what confused me:
"This course counts towards the Hands-on course requirement for the Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certification. Only instructor-led inclass or instructor-led online formats of this course will meet the Certification Hands-on Requirement. Self Study CD-Rom and Knowledge Center courses DO NOT meet the Hands-on Requirement."
i was hoping to clear the OCA exam completely thru self-stufy. so that is not an option? or did i miss something here?
i read quite a lot of threads for 1Z0-051 in this forum, but couldn't find an answer to my question. apologies if this is a repeate query.
thanks,

--RuchiOracle training is probably the best quality training for the exam but there is no mandatory need to take it before taking this exam.
The Hands on Course requirement is for (DBA OCP) certification purposes and is independent of any particular exam. What it is trying to say is attending this course will meet the Hands on requirement for those seeking Oracle DBa certification.
Browsing the forum announcement posts and [http://www.oracle.com/education/certification] may help. The blog here will also help. [http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/2009/07/oracle_certification_and_the_h.html]
So yes you can self study completely for this exam if you want and you feel you are capable of it. See also [http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/2009/05/the_route_you_choose.html] for further study tips.

Online exams are non-proctored, which means that you can take them at your convenience any time, anywhere. Pre-registration is not required. You register when you are ready to take the exam.
Online exams are closed-book exams --- books, course materials and notes are not allowed. You should prepare for them fully and rely on your own mastery of the material.
Candidates who take the online exams are subject to the Oracle Fraudulent Activity policy and must agree to the Oracle Candidate Agreement (presented at the beginning of the exam). You should never have someone take the exam for you. You should never test under a name other than your own, and/or test using more than one name or Prometric Testing ID.

1Z0-051 Oracle Certification - OCA

Hi. I am in a fix and so need your help.
I am planning to give 1Z0-051 Oracle Certification exam(Oracle Database 11g- SQL fundamentals). However, I will be unable to give my 1Z0-052 exam(Oracle Database 11g- Administration-I) at this time. So, if I give only 1Z0-051 exam, then will it carry some weightage in my resume? Also, if I pass the 1Z0-051 exam, then how should I put it in my resume? That I am a Oracle Certified individual?

That I am a Oracle Certified individual?If you pass the 1z0-051 you may put that in your resumé.
(If you need proof of this copy the report from the test center ... you cannot really get from of this from Oracle. Certview will publish certifcations, not exam passes). If you take this online there is no proof it was you you actually took the exam).
However you are not Oracle certified and must not put that in your resume ... you may only put it in your resumé when you have proof from Oracle you have been awarded a Certification.
The weight of this exam pass, and indeed any exam pass or certification, can depend on the reader(s) of the resumé; and the nature of job you are applying for; and the strength of the other candidates for the job. Suppose an employer was looking for CV's for a DBA job. Assuming the HR/agencies let the CV's through they might get (in practice a higher number of DBA OCPs might be expected):
Person with a 1z0-051 pass and degree and no experience.
5 with 9i DBA OCP, most with MA degrees, with no experience
10g DBA OCA obtained 3 years ago with no experience.
Apparently experienced DBA with no formal qualifications and no degree.
Now the first and last candidates have a high probability of being what they say they are, but the first wuld be no good if an experienced DBA was needed. It would be necessary at interview to be careful to check the others had the experience level claimed due to certifications being obtained though cheating and fraud. Its also worth noting DBA OCA does not cover backups / restores in depth.
However if what was needed was someone to query database results as a result of some tests the first candidate might acutally be the most suitable .. assuming he has studied the 1z0-051 carefully. The 10g OCA might not have done SQL ... the experienced DBA might feel that was not a suitable job for him, and the 9i DBA OCPs may have rushed (or cheated) their way through 1z0-007 as quickly as possible and would not be interested / capablle of this work.
(Please note this article is biased against 9i DBA OCP ... at one point my understanding is there was a particularly high level of cheating/fraud against this certification and some poor training from some WDP institutions ... which is a pity for those achieving the certification through due work and good training).

Could I take 1Z0-051 and 1Z0-047 together?

Hi, I am currently planning to take a Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate. At first, I plan to take the path of 1Z0-047 + 1Z0-144 which leads to this certification, because the 1Z0-047 itself is also leading to another cert (Oracle SQL Expert cert). So if I take this path, I would end up with two certifications (Oracle SQL Expert cert and PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate)
However, people keep on telling me that 1Z0-047 is very difficult, saying that 1Z0-051 is much easier if I want to guarantee a PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate.
So, is it possible that I take all three exams (1Z0-051, 1Z0-047, 1Z0-144)? I am thinking that taking 1Z0-051 as a kind of "practice" because it is an online exam and the exam scope looks easy to me. Also I have some budgets allocated to me so I don't mind spend a little bit extra money to Oracle exams.
I'm just wondering whether two of them (051, 047) are mutually exclusive in the exam policy or something.

So, is it possible that I take all three exams (1Z0-051, 1Z0-047, 1Z0-144)?Yes, you may take both 1Z0-051 and 1Z0-047. In fact, I would highly recommend taking 1Z0-051 before taking 1Z0-047. You have heard correctly, 047 is a much more difficult exam and requires a considerably higher level of SQL experience/knowledge. If you look at the study topics for both tests, you'll see that 1Z0-047 includes essentially all of the topics from 1Z0-051, and has another thirty-some topics in addition. Studying for 1Z0-051 is in itself preparation for taking the expert test. I discuss the two exams in an article here:
http://www.gocertify.com/articles/oracle-sql-certification-1z0-051-or-1z0-047.html

Should get 1Z0-051 or 1Z0-052

Hi there,
i'm thinking to get OCA, which exam should i go first?
1Z0-051 or 1Z0-052. Please advice.
Thanks

Hi,
I would also recommend taking the SQL exam first. You can do it online. Just be sure do do at least some practice exams (for instance the Transcender exam preparation recommended by Oracle, try at least the demo) to get familiar with the form of questions.
I just passed the online SQL exam last weak and the proctored Administration exam today. You definitely need more knowledge for the Admin exam than for the SQL one.
However, for me the SQL exam was the harder one, because you have to be really focused on the questions, read every requirement carefully, examine an awful lot of exhibits, and do not overlook a tiny difference in the answers, like a missing quote here or a duplicate set clause there ... I felt really tired and I needed every second of the two hours limit.
On the other hand, I was very relaxed at the today's administration exam. I understood the questions clearly, had a plenty of time to mark the answers and I was quite confident with the answers.
If you have some practical experience, you should pass the cert exams test with ease. Good luck with your exams.

OCA: 1Z0-047 Oracle DB SQL Export vs. 1Z0-051 11g: SQL Fundamentals I

Hi All
Passed my 1Z0-042 today (now that's a monkey off my back, so off to celebrate with something red, fermented & >12%ABV!), and am now looking at which other exam to take to complete the OCA.
Now for me, this looks like a no-brainer....
1Z0-047 has a much wider topic list (http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_047) than that of 1Z0-051 (http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_051), and has a pass mark of 66% against 60% for the 11g, and is over 40GBP cheaper (I assume because 1Z0-051 is non-proctered).
Am I missing something really obvious??
Hic!
bt

>
>
>
Also, if I buy the non-proctered exam today (to head off any further nasty future prices rises...grrr...), how long is it valid for i.e. how long do I have before I need to take it online?
I thnk its unlikely (but I could be wrong) the prices will change much again (particularly upwards) for a bit except/unless currency exchange variations. So I wouldn't rush to book. I think online you can book immediately, and for proctored you should normally have slots a few days in advance at most 5 day centres apart from near end of terms and quarters and possibly on fridays or at the end of special offers.
Although the 1z0-051 is 'non-proctored' I believe it can also be taken proctored for the same price. Doing it online has risks of distraction and any connection issues may be your problem. If I did it online I am sure there would be a someone wishing explore the local electricity substation or play with a JCB when I was attempting to take my exam.

Exam 1Z0-051 is not protected, what that actually mean

Hello I has prepared for testing of course 1Z0-051, but how I saw on Pearson Vue site for this exam is classed as Not-Protected exam, what that mean, that I can try to pass exam from the home without going to the some test center?
And also that will not be the problem, for my next exam which i want to prepare is Protected and should be examine from any of the test centers

PROCTORED : See for exmaple: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/proctored
Essentially for Oracle Certifcation Program Purposes:
A Proctored exam msut be taken at a Pearson VUE Testing under the supervision/camera etc.
A non proctered exam may be taken online without such stringent supervision. ( It may also be taken at a test center as well if one chooses).
