1z0-051 sql fundamental 11g certification

Hi,
I am preparing for my first OCA exam(pre req for OCP) in about 3 weeks from now using the 1z0051 exam preperation guide. It is a good book (this has just 2 full tests 65 questions each)
I was wondering are there any other resources or mock tests ic an get form. I ahve read bad reviews about u certify. Someone also suggested the Instructor led training stuff from oracle but from what i know thats expensive expensive. About 3000$.
Any resources online or any experiences in this exam will help.
Thanks
Anup

  • Is the only 1Z0-051 SQL Fundamentals I certification useful/recognised in the international labour market?

    Hi,
    I've been studying for passing the 1Z0-051 "SQL Fundamentals I" exam before taking the 1Z0-144 "Program with PL/SQL" exam and so I wonder if the only (for the moment) "SQL Fundamentals I" certification may be considerated useful/recognised in the international labour market or if it's "only" an intermediate certification for taking the "Program with PL/SQL" exam.
    I ask for that 'cause I wonder if once I'll have taken the "SQL Fundamentals I" certification, this might be added in my curriculum or if it's just an intermediate certification
    Thanks!

    I really don't like the statement that the SQL Fundamentals exams have no value.  Passing the exams will not earn a certificate.  That is not the same thing as having no value.  I am in the final stages of hiring an assistant to act as a backup for me.  For several reasons the company decided to hire a recent college graduate with minimal (read almost zip) Oracle knowledge.  I plan to assign them a set of reading material to study and certification exams to prepare for.  I wrote an article detailing the specific steps on Certification Magazine here:
    How to train your assistant: Certification makes the minion - CertMag
    The very first test I will have them work towards is 1Z0-051. If that test 'had no value', why would I bother doing this? The SQL Expert Exam (1Z0-047) earns a certification and so obviously is'the more valuable exam, right? Wrong (at least in my opinion). The SQL Fundamentals exam has a better coverage of the basic SQL elements that I need to be confident my assistant has learned.  After my backup has completed all of the certifications listed in the above article, I may well have him move on to some more advanced exams, including 1Z0-047, among others.  However, much of the SQL Expert exam content is on seldom-used elements of the language.  I don't think I have ever used the ROLLUP, CUBE, or GROUPING SETS operations for real-world work. Likewise I cannot recall having a need for multitable INSERTs. I have never had a need to set a column to UNUSED.  I think I've used regular expressions less than five times in twenty years.  I use CONNECT BY PRIOR more than that, but still seldom enough that I often Google the syntax when I need to write a hierarchical query.
    In short -- why would I bother making them spend time studying aspects of SQL that they almost certainly won't use very often.  I need them to be knowledgeable about the SQL syntax that they will be using on a daily basis.  That's what the SQL Fundamentals exam contains and that is why that exam is more valuable for people just starting out with the Oracle database.

  • 1z0-051: SQL Fundamentals objective inquiry

    Hi,
    first of all I wish if this is the right way/ forum to ask. If not, please accept my apologies, in advance.
    I'm preparing for 1z0-051 Oracle Database 11g SQL Fundamentals 1 exam. My main refrence is :
    OCA Oracle Database 11g SQL Fundamentals I Exam Guide (Exam 1Z0-051) Complete Exam Preparation-John Watson and Roopesh Ramklass , from Oracle Press.
    I could find in the book a reference for the objective of the Using DDL Statements to Create and Manage Tables:
    Describe how schema objects work.
    Any help with that objective, please???
    Thank you

    Hell AHS, I just answered your question in the other topic you opened. The info provided in the link Markus Waldorf gave you is too detailed. You don't need to know about CLUSTER, DIMENSION, EXTERNAL PROCEDURES, etc etc.
    I passed the exam not so long ago and the book is enough (along with 5 years using Oracle almost everyday in my case).
    Cheers,

  • 1Z0-051 SQL Fundamentals 1 Exam Guide Problem with loading HR schema

    Hi,
    I’m new to Oracle Databases and have started studying with Oracle Press 11g SQL Fundamentals 1 Exam Guide 1Z0-051.
    The book is good except the problem I have is the HR schema they talk about is made up off seven tables (Countries, Departments, Employees, Job_History, Jobs, Locations and Regions).
    But the HR schema that I get is only made up off 4 tables (Bonus, Dept, Emp, Salgrade).
    Can anyone who has used this book please advise what I’m doing wrong and how I can get the correct Schema please.

    Hi,
    Well I haven't used that book but with whatever little I know , I shall try to attempt the question.
    There was an ancient schema for Human Resource, SCOTT which is haivng 4 tables only. Since 9i, there were an introduction of new schemas like HR ( Human Resource), OE( Order Entry) and so on. So the book is referring to that.
    Now when you create the database using Database Configuration Assistant, there comes an option with a check box, that do you want to create sample schemas or not? If you select that option, you get all these schemas in your db. If not, you only get the old SCOTT schema.
    If you have missed creating these schemas( which I belive is the case) than you need to manually create them. Here is the description for how to create them manually.

  • I just took the 1Z0-051 SQL Fundamentals test

    I read this book to study for the test. I went through the quizes in the book and the cd with test on it that came with the book. I did ok with those. I came across UCertify and saw they had some practice test and everything so i go that too and really used that as my main study tool.
    I was making 90 - 95s on every test with the UCertify stuff. So i thought I was ready for the test. I got signed up and went and took it yesterday.
    THE UCERTIFY STUFF WAS NOTHING LIKE THE TEST!!!!
    It was so different that about 15 questions into the test I knew I wasnt going to pass. The UCertify questions were geared towards stuff you could memorize...rules, what different functions do, what certain characters mean.
    The test was 90%...here are 4 queries...which one works based on the given exhibit. They werent just simple one line queries either. I swear one question had a query with a subquery with a subquery and all of them had joins from 4 different tables. The question was so hard to follow what they wanted that it was almost a joke. Alot of the questions asked for 2 answers..."select two correct answers"
    I know what to study now but I will definitely NOT be using UCertify to study with anymore.
    If you are studying the best thing to study is what breaks a query, look for questions that ask you to figure out whats wrong in the query or what the outcome will be.
    Know a LOT about grouping, sorting, subqueries, and being able to determine what a query will return.

    Hi,
    I took the SQL Fundamentals test too, although the one I took was for 9i.
    I too prepared for it using uCertify and a OUP book (Jason Couchman), and like you, I was getting around 85-95% on the uCertify tests. Furthermore, their Final Test said that this is harder than the actual exam, so when I got over 90%, I was very confident. However, like you, when I did the actual test, it was a lot harder, and eventually I passed with a much lower mark than I expected (pass mark was 37, I got 41). So I was definitely disappointed with uCertify.
    I do believe they say that "pass or your money back", so I would advise you to ask them to refund you!!!
    Good luck in your next test.

  • Does 1Z0-001 fit the requirement of 11g DB OCP requirement (1Z0-051)?

    Dear Sir:
       Hi, I would like to ask 3 questions about the certification requirement of 11g DB OCP.
    Please advice me what do I have to do to prepare the OCP exam, thanks a lot in advance.
    Q1:
    Does 1Z0-001 fit the requirement of 11g DB OCP requirement (pass 1Z0-001 = pass 1Z0-051)?
    AFAIK, 11g DB OCP requires passing 3 exams: 1Z0-051 (SQL), 1Z0-052 (AW1), 1Z0-053 (AW2) and finishing a hand-on course at least.
    I have passed the 1Z0-001 (Introduction to SQL ans PL/SQL) many years ago.
    After searching the discussion in the community, I've found 2 relative:
    https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2526631  It said :"1Z0-001 will satisfy the SQL requirement."
    https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2467872 It said : "I can confirm that the 001 exam will fulfill the SQL exam requirement if it was passed before it retired."
    I was confused on that. Please help me to clear it.
    Do I have to prepare the exam 1Z0-051 since I have passed 1Z0-001 (an retired exam)?
    Q2:
    Please confirm that finishing the SSC (Self-Study Course) DOES NOT apply the "hand-on course requirement ".
    It still need to pay more money for an instructor-led (face-to-face) course, right?
    Q3:
    Can I just finish ONE course "Oracle 11g Database Administrator Workshop II" from an Oracle authorized education center to fit the " hand-on course requirement " ?
    Sorry I have to ask this because the budget consideration.
    Thank you very much!

    A1 -- Yes, if you passed 1Z0-001, you do not need to take 1Z0-051.  When courses are retired, it simply means they are no longer given to *new* students.  Anyone who passed them still retains credit for having done so.
    A2 -- Self Study CDs do not count for the hands-in requirement.  On the approved courses page of OU, it specifically states: "Self Study CD-Rom and Knowledge Center courses are excellent study and reference tools but DO NOT meet the Hands-on Requirement for certification."
    A3 -- Only one course is required for the 11G OCP.  That one is on the approved list and so will be acceptable if the vendor is authorized by OU.

  • 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.

    Thanks.On thread Regarding OCP certification you claimed you are an OCA and have completed 1z0-147 and were planning to study for 1z0-146.
    That question remains unanswered.
    There was no comment to my replay on that question.
    And now you are planning to study for 1z0-051 and don't know how to go about it.
    So what kind of study materials do you need? ... what have you used in the past? ... what works well for you?

  • Is a Oracle SQL Expert a certification?

    I was looking at the Oracle Certified Associate on 11g.  Within that there are lots of tests.  Some of those are SQL Fundmentals 1Z0-051.  Another one is 047 SQL Expert.
    Are these individual classes, within the OCA, certifications as well?  Or, are they only classes to get to the OCA?  Thanks.

    It's a little difficult to follow the thread of your questions. 
    Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Associate is the 11G DBA OCA certification. 
    This certification requires that you pass a SQL exam. 
    Either of the exams 1Z0-051 (SQL Fundamentals) or 1Z0-047 (SQL Expert) will meet the SQL requirement for the certification.
    Oracle University has classes that can help prepare you for either of the exams, but taking a class is not required to earn the OCA certification.

  • Oracle 11g Certification and Workshop Requirement

    Hello,
    I have recently cleared below Oracle Exams.
    1Z0-051 (SQL Fundamentals)
    1Z0-052 (Oracle 11g Admin I)
    1Z0-053 (Oracle 11g Admin II) - Cleared in May 2013
    I haven't completed the Workshop requirement which indicates I am not OCP as of now.
    Question is, is there any specific time limit within which I have to complete the Workshop? Specifically can I wait for another 6 months before completing the Workshop?
    If I can wait for 6 months, is there any chance OU will stop offering these workshops in next 6 months (by Dec 2013)?
    Thanks

    There is no time limit. But more importantly, you do not need to attend either of the DBA workshop courses. There are many courses which will meet the requirement. As you have the knowledge to  have passed the exams, you should attend a more advanced course. Perhaps the Database Performance Tuning course, or (if you want a shorter and  cheaper one) SQL Statement Tuning. 

  • Help about 1Z0-051?

    For preparing 1Z0-051 exam, where can i get the practice questions fro each topic in the book recommended by Oracle.As the questions in the book are too easy as compared to the question that comes in exam.
    Please reply

    The only approved practice questions/exams are those created by Kaplan (Selftestsoftware and Transcender).  Most of the others are brain dumps.
