1Z0-052 Administration I 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 Administration I Exam Guide (1Z0-052) by John Watson, 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.

I think you should be safe. I take it next month so I hope we are. :)
Heres a link to the site with the exam topics and it looks pretty much the same as before:

I am guessing should be ok + read the Oracle Documentation about 11g R2 New Features.
Will these be included? The exam subject detail doesn't really go down the required level.the exam normally will cover 11g R1 and R2.

Hi Raghavendra, welcome to the forum!
I suggest you remove you email from your post to avoid recieveing undesired emails.
There are two OCA paths, OCA Developer or OCA DBA.
For both paths you need to take one of the following SQL exams:
1z0-007 Introduction to Oracle9i SQL (this is an outdated exam)
or
1z0-047 Oracle Database SQL Expert (more advanced exam recommended for developers/dbas with SQL experience)
or
1z0-051 Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I (recommended for beginners or people with average experience in SQL)
After passing one of these exams, if you want to take the OCA DBA path you need to do the:
1z0-052 Administration I exam
After passing one of the SQL exams, if you want to take the OCA Developer path you need one of the:
1z0-147 Program with PL/SQL (outdated exam)
or
1z0-144 Oracle Database 11g: Program with PL/SQL (more actual exam, recommended)

1z0-052 11G Admin 1 Exam

Please can i get some feedback on the "difficulty" of the 1z0-052 admin 1 exam? Sometime ago I passed the Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i DBA 1 course, and wondered how it compared to these.
I am using the ORacle Press OCA book, by John Watson, and I have just about passed the practice tests, so also wondered close these are in "difficulty" to the real thing?
Thanks in advance!

As a rule of thumb 'just about passed the practice tests' is probably not good enough.
Its an indicator more study is required.
IMHO a better target is something like to be 85% certain you have an 85% probability of achieving a mark half way between the pass mark and 100%.
For the practice tests to be an reasonable indicator of exam performance:
-- You must not have seen the questions before.
-- You should not have revised immediately before taking the practice test (this applies especially to end of chapter questions).
-- Assume the practice tests are a little easier than the real one and will overestimate you score by 10-15% (though sometimes the quality may be less .. and some asnwers may be more amibiguous). And sometimes the questions may be shorter .

Oracle 1Z0-052 exam help !!

Hi,
I have passed SQL fundamental-I (1Z0-051) exam and now I am preparing for oracle database Administration exam-I(1Z0-052), but I have few questions :
(1) Is knowledge of linux/solaris is must to pass this exam.
(2) Is their is any requirement of PL/SQL before starting for this exam study.

As Brandye says, you should use the exam topics to plan your study. The answer to your questions, however, is no to both. You can find links to Oracle documentation, articles, books and videos relevant to this exam here:

Which book topics to follow for exam 1Z0-007? Sybex or Oracle press?

Hi, I am studying following both books for exam 1Z0-007 but sybex book by Chip Dawes covers more topics then oracle book. I am wondering if i still need to study those topics in sybex book which are not covered in oracle press book? For example DML Locks have been discussed in detail in sybex book as compare to oracle book and few topics are missing in oracle press and don't know if there will be any question in the exam from those topics?
1) OCP Introduction to Oracle9i: SQL Exam Guide by Jason Couchman
2) OCA/OCP: Introduction to Oracle9i SQL Study Guide by Chip Dawes, Biju Thomas
Can anyone pls advise? Also i like to know if SelfTest software covers same questions which are in sybex and oracke press book? Because SelfTest software has same questions for microsoft exams which are already in the cd of microsoft official press books.
Thanks

The proper method is to look at the exam topics on [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_org_id=1001&lang=US&p_exam_id=1Z0_007] which is authorative.
either the Sybex or Oracle Press book is authorative, and sometimes exam changes after these are printed (with revision from 9iR1 to9iR2 for example).
In general you should probably have enough material in the two books given for this exam. Its probably cheaper to take the exam itself rather than buy additional Selftest questions. Your time may well be better spent practicing the things you have trouble with. Also be aware these books can have errors. And learn whichever is in either book even if it isnt examined. Its good for you!

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.

Oracle exam 1Z0-052 in Perth, Western Australia

Hi All,
I am planning to take 1Z0-052. I am based in Perth, Western Australia. I just bought the exam voucher from the Oracle University; and I heard the exam was a proctored exam.
I would like to ask for anybody who already done this exam. Was it hard? and where did you do the exam in Perth, Western Australia? I assume I have to go to the appointed exam instituion for this.
Is it prometric?
Thank you

Hi Brandye,
I just did the 1Z0-052 exam, and i passed. Thank you for your info. It is correct that Oracle exam is delivered through Pearson VUE. For those of you who lived in Perth, Western Australia you will need to arrange your exam through Pearson VUE website - but you will have the exam at the authorised testing centre. I had mine at amcom Septimus Roe square. The exam was harder than 1Z0-051 but it was ok.

1z0-052 & 053 based on 11g or 11gR2

Hi guys,
I am preparing the exams 052 & 053 now. I heard that these two exams are updated to 11gR2. So I want to check this information here. If it is updated to R2, where can I get new materials; if not, when will it be updated?
Thanks

At the moment, I have three books in my hand.

Oracle Press - OCA Oracle Database 11g Administration II Exam Guide 1Z0-053
McGraw.Hill.Oracle.Database.11g.DBA.Handbook.Dec.2007In essence these should be perfectly acceptable for the exam topics.
When the exam is validated against 11gR2 it is essentaily a check that the exam answers have not changed by any changes with 11gR2.
However one should always check the exam topics covered by these books have not changed by checking agsinst the topics on the exam web page ... remember these books are often prepared when the exam is in beta and it is unlikely there is an update with the production release.
I believe the mid-life update of the 1z0-042/3 exams for 10gR2 from 10gR1 were slightly more eextensive, however agin the important thing was to check out the exam topic changes. In essence the changes were more to track changes in Oracle Training courses that directly to do with changes in nthe Oracle Versions.
It is of course however useful to persue over the 'new and chaged features' of the 11gR2 release, it is a useful exercise for you to locate these yourself anyway.

Simple question about 1z0-052 exam

Hello everyone,
When I went to my local testing site to register exam, my Vue administrator told me that 1z0-052 exam is labeled as Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I!
So, the question is, is this exam that is needed to finish OCA certification?
Since there is minor mismatch in name(VUE has workshop in a name of exam, while Oracle site does not, but the exam code is same - 1z0-052),so I would really like to be 100% sure that I'm registering for the right exam.
Thanks in advance

However to answer your question:-
The link [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_052] which is authorative
Links the exam entitled: Oracle Database 11g: Administration I on 1 1-1 basis with code +1Z0-052+
Given you have implied you have passed a relevant SQL exam, 1z0-052 is all that remains for you to complete requirements for 11g DBA OCA.

Pearson VUE -- unable to sit 1Z0-052 exam

Good day to everyone,
I am writing to ask for an advice regarding 1Z0-052 exam in Australia with Pearson VUE.
My experience that it is pretty much impossible due to technical issues in testing centres.
I have had the exam scheduled for 5th August 2010 in EXCOM Education (Brisbane, Australia), but the exam failed to start on the day.
After waiting for almost two weeks (Pearson VUE was "investigating incident") and nagging them a few times I've been able to have exam rescheduled to September date. Before the exam date I have been called again and informed that the testing centre is unable to run the exam. Rescheduled again, this time to Dimension Data centre in Brisbane. The nearest available spot happened to be on 25th November.
The exam failed to start again in the new centre. This time again I've had to call Pearson VUE several times over the past three weeks to get a response... that I have to reschedule the exam again, at a new testing centre.
The problem is -- there are no more testing centres in Brisbane. The closest centre offered is more than 700 km away, and there is no guarantee that an exam will actually run there this time.
I am not happy with this solution, as I have wasted two working days already with no results and I don't want to waste time and money again (it would cost me $500 just to get to the testing centre).
Now it is almost five months since I have been ready to pass the exam and I have not a slightest idea when it might possibly happen.
Could anyone tell me if s/he has sat an Oracle 11g Administration I exam (1Z0-052) anywhere in Australia?
I am looking for a testing centre that is actually capable to let me sit the exam, as Pearson just doesn't seem trustworthy anymore.
Or should I just get a refund and forget about Oracle certification?

Thanks again, Brandye.
All problems have been resolved by now.
I have been contacted by the Pearson VUE in the end of December.
They said that there is a new testing centre opening in Brisbane that would be able to deliver the exam.
I was also refunded the exam fee I have paid before and given a voucher code for a free retest.
I have successfully passed the test at the Training Choice testing centre and now happily await the certification kit.
I dare to say that before you interfering my perspectives did not look promising, so thanks for your help.
Kind regards,
Nikita Nadezhdin
