ThelakYou should visit
http://certification.oracle.com
and browse the site there, particularly Preaparation / Steps to becoming certified
This will give you the information you need, including codes for developer and DBA exams.
- In general you should go for newer exams at higher Oracle Versions where there is an equivalent choice.
- Perhaps one exception may for some be DBA or other certifications with a traning component where the availability/cost of such training may be a decider.

1Z0-051 without OCA certification

Hi everyone.
I am currently a university student with a great interest in SQL. As a result, I intend to take the SQL Fundamentals qualifications (1Z0-051). I believe passing this exam alone is not sufficient to get an OCA certification, but I am not really interested in becoming a DBA later, I can see myself as a developer instead. I know that there is a SQL Expert qualification too, but I believe I do not have the neccessary experience to pass that exam yet, so I am starting with 1Z0-051. My question is, even though it does not give me a certification, is there still a way it can be placed on my CV so that the employer can track it down/check its validity? Do I get an ID or some sort of code after passing the exam, which can be used for others to look my results up online?
Thank you,
All the best,
D

... I am not really interested in becoming a DBA later, I can see myself as a developer instead.
Just a SQL developer? If you take (and pass) the exam 1Z0-144 after 1Z0-051, you will become an OCA PL/SQL developer. That will be a verifiable Oracle certification.
...is there still a way it can be placed on my CV so that the employer can track it down/check its validity? Do I get an ID or some sort of code after passing the exam, which can be used for others to look my results up online?
You can certainly put on your CV that you passed the Oracle SQL Fundamentals exam. You will get a PDF of the test results that you can show to an employer if they ask. However, the only options in CertView on publishing credentials to third parties is for certifications, not test results.

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.

Training for 1z0-051?

Hello all,
I have a requirement by my employer to achieve Oracle Certification. I passed 1z0-052 last week after studying off and on for the last year and a half. Next up is 1z0-051 or 061.
Fortunately my employer is funding a training class for this exam. We have 11g in our environment, so it is the 051/052 track I started on. I noticed on the 051 exam page that the recommended training is no longer offered. I'm planning to take the training class linked from the 061 page (Oracle Database 12c: Introduction to SQL Ed 1.1). Is this adequate/sensible training for the 051 exam? Or should I scrap 051 in favor of 061? I see that either will count towards OCA/OCP.
I am speaking out of honest ignorance here, but it seems that the material covered for 061 is completely applicable to 051. Any sage advice for me? Am I off track in my assessment?
Many thanks for any help you can offer.
-Alan

The 1Z0-051 and 1Z0-061 exams have about a 95% commonality in topics. The 'Introduction' section was added to 1Z0-061 and the 'Creating other schema objects' section that was in 1Z0-051 has been removed in 061. As such, the 061 training should prepare you for the vast majority of the 1Z0-051 exam.
That said -- there is no reason not to simply take the 1Z0-061 exam if that's what you are taking the training for anyway. I generally consider picking one over the other to be largely a toss up. Last week someone had the Oracle Press book for 1Z0-051 and was asking about taking 061. I suggested going with 051 since they had the study materials for it. In your case, the opposite applies, so I would suggest that the 1Z0-061 exam would probably be the (slightly) better choice.

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.

OCA - Choice between 1Z0-144,1Z0- 047 and 1Z0- 051

Hello everyone,
I am a developer working on Java EE and our DB is Oracle 10g.
I intend to take an exam that prepares me for :
1. Writing DDL,DML and usage of functions
2. Creating cursors,procedures,triggers,indexes etc.
3. Focus on writing efficient queries - sub-queries,joins,manipulating BLOBs etc.
4. Creating & using Java-like 'collections' in the DB
Given the above requirements, I decided to go for OCA certification. I realized the following path from Oracle's site :
_1Z0-047_ Oracle
Database SQL Expert
OR
_1Z0-051_ Oracle Database
11g: SQL Fundamentals
I
AND
Program with PL/SQL
_1Z0-147_
OR
Oracle Database 11g:
Program with PL/SQL
_1Z0-144_
Now,I am quite unsure as to which exam I must target first.
Given my requirements,please suggest the best approach( I know the basics of PL/SQL )
Thanks !

Thanks for the replies, guys !
Just to prevent the fragmentation of the information, I am posting my further question in this thread itself.
My objective now is to consolidate the study material for 1Z0-051.
After scanning the previous threads, I got the following suggestions :
OCA Oracle Database 11g SQL Fundamentals I Exam Guide: Exam 1Z0-051 (Osborne ORACLE Press Series) by John Watson and Roopesh Ramklass
SQL Developer guide from the oracle documentation at http://tahiti.oracle.com
OCA: Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Associate Study Guide: (Exams1Z0-051 and 1Z0-052) ISBN-13: 978-0470395127 sybex.
I prefer to read a certification oriented book to get started and the other stuff - forums,documentation,references for practice.
Hence,please suggest the appropriate study material.
Thanks !

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,

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.
Edited by: bigdelboy on 20-Dec-2012 06:42 re: but the first part will realate to the SQL topics of 1z0-051 .... okay I can see from Matthews answer below it doesn't ... well teaches me not to guess!

Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I 1Z0-051 Question

i bought the OCA Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I Exam Guide (Exam 1Z0-051) and i am not sure do i have to read the whole book ! or just go through the exam objectives table ? because the book covers lots of topics that's not in the exam and i am kind of tight on time if any one had the book or used it pls help
To make it more clear i have a table in the book that shows each exam topic with page number next to it Like this:
Restricting and Sorting Data
[ ]      Limit the rows that are retrieved by a query Pg:104
[ ]      Sort the rows that are retrieved by a query Pg:136
[ ]      Use ampersand substitution to restrict and sort output at runtime
Using Single-Row Functions to Customize Output
[ ]      Describe various types of functions available in SQL Pg:170
[ ]      Use character, number, and date functions in SELECT statements Pg:177
Edited by: user7804566 on 01-Mar-2009 02:00

Yes indeed. Practice at work (and elsewhere) is the best way to learn and ro reinforce learning.
However, the more you read, the more you will be exposed to ideas and variations. Eventually you will find that many of the books have errors in various places. You will be winning when you are able to read and identify the errors AND explain why they are errors.
The way your original question was written implied that you were after the minimum effort to pass an exam. Your last reply implies a different, and better, attitude.
My suggestion therefore is to concentrate on the actual examples, but as quickly as possible expand to areas of interest. Explore as much as you possibly can, but make it a 'learning exploration' byut asking yourself questions and then investigating what the answer is.
Also note that in Oracle nearly every answer has an exception. The best of the best know this and try very hard to understand when things go according to plan and when (and why) expections occur.

1Z0-051

Hey,
I have just started working, and since my work profile deals with sql and pl/sql development primarily I want to go for 1Z0-051 exam. My query is as follows:
1.I want to know the level of difficulty to expect. I plan to study for the same from the official guide for 1.5 -2 months. Will it turn out to be enough?
2.Is the helping material like the simulation exam absolutely necessary given ?
3.Does a OCA certification with relatively lesser experience useful?
Thanks in advance.\_/

What are your thoughts about the simulation exams provided in the cd with 1Z0-051 watson guide?Well there is a couple of mistakes, the exam, particular the downloaded bonus one, can seem a little clunky and even annoyingly buggy.
My view on smulation exams and test questions are that i regard them to be rare golddust. I only use them after all my other preparations are complete. And even then only one at a time. In other words I use them to confirm my skills and identifiy gaps at the end of my preparation.
Generally the question set can be used for exams or for learning. If you use them for learning you may get to the exam point quicker, but there is danger of learning the questions and not the exam topics.
Apart from that can we also take help from the exams on the cd's for exams 1Z0-007,1Z0-047, while preparing for 1Z0-051?1z0-007 will cover a comparable topic set and level to 1z0-051 therefore sample questions and anwers will generally be valid.
1z0-047, while it is a superset of 1z0-051 topics, will generally have questions that concentrate on 1z0-047 specific topics and to a higher difficulty level. Therefore IMHO 1z0-047 questions will probably be more of a hinderance than a help to people studying 1z0-051.
If you really are massively into simulations, and have the money, Oracle have a Kaplan IT as a practice exam provider. See http://certification.oracle.com/ - Preparation - Practice Tests.
- (Nearly all other simulations you will find on the net are braindump simulations and must be avoided)

1Z0-051 advise

Hi All ,
I took 1Z0-051 last night after several months of studying and failed by 3 percentage points. I basically ran out of time. I knew how to answer most questions, but the queries were just too time consuming for me. Any advise? i did not expect 2 hours of extreme concentration having most questions to be queries with several close answers. I'm not even sure how else to study or what i did differently. Is there a good strategy that I'm not seeing? I basically ran out of time and had to mark the last 10 questions randomly. I mean common Oracle , what is the wisdom here?

Time management is always a factor in certification exams. 1Z0-051 isn't the worst (so far in my experience, that title goes to 1Z0-144). However, because it is an unproctored exam, Oracle University had to ensure that the time limit was short enough that it would not be feasible for someone to look up answer to each question. John's suggestion is reasonable, although I always recommend that when 'skipping' questions that you always put in your best guess, mark the question, and then move on to the next one. That way if you don't have time to come back, there is at least a chance you got it correct. I haven't read John's technique article, but here is one I created a few months ago that was published at GoCertify. The last three tips are most relevant here.
Oracle Certification: 10 Tips for any Exam | GoCertify
However, from your note, you are indicating that most of the questions were taking you too much time. That unfortunately is just a matter of familiarity with SQL. Someone who can read SQL, but does not have much experience with it might take three minutes answering a given question while a person who has worked with Oracle SQL for years would complete it in one. There is no cure for that except practicing writing queries until you are more comfortable with it. You can also check out some of the study resources I have gathered at my site for that exam. All of them are certification safe and most are free. In particular, there are links to a number of videos on YouTube of Oracle SQL intro courses.
Oracle Certification Prep: Exam details and preparation resources for 1Z0-051
One suggestion that I can make when trying to pick the correct answer from a list of similar SQL statements is not to look for the right one initially but rather identify the obviously wrong ones. Generally there will be at least one or two with an obvious flaw -- the wrong number or order of columns in the SELECT clause -- an invalid comparison in the WHERE clause, etc. I'll scan through them and quickly eliminate these from consideration before turning to the remaining ones

Are there any 1z0-051 Sample Exams?

I am a person working in Java but I am planning to give 1Z0-051 exam in march. Have been studying from SQL Fundamentals I Exam Guide - Watson.

PrachiMy personal opinio n is if you know SQL well enough, and use the study guide to sharpen the edge of ones understanding, then one should be okay.
So IMHO the candidate who:
1) Learns SQL independently of the study guide
2) Makes own notes and
3) Downloads study guide errata
4) Uses the study guide to fine tune knowledge up to exam standard.
5) Refer to Oracle documentation and practice to resolve any uncertainties, practice this learned, or areas found difficult.
6) Perform gap analysis against latest published topics
7) Never take a practice test after revising that day.
8) Only then does end of chapter questions .. and spend times investigating any wrong answers. ( Yes sometime these books can be wrong/ambiguous).
Stands a good chance of doing well ... provided they are able to understand the questions (ie poor english / japanese might be unhelpful; and an inability to rad a question carefully, exactly and properly will be a problem).
( If all else fails read the question ...... as an ex techer of mine used to drum into us week in an week out ).
However if a candidate:
- studies only by using a study book.
- immediately does questions and repeatedly does same questions.
There is a real danger on overly relying on the questions given rather than being able to answer any question on the given topic and having gaining real practice and understanding of the things being learnt.
If you really need additonal practice questions you can pay your money for these official one:
These are available from the certification website at http://certificaton.oracle.com - preparation - practice tests ..... (and linked to by announcements posts in this forum)... so I guess Oracle would hope Candidates would find them.
... (NB: only buy one of hte Kaplan offerings ... )
At an extreme case if a person had does question 6 fives days in a week by the 5th day the person may know the answer is A,B,D without even knowing the answer!
7) Then takes the sample exams on the CDROM (One at a time).

About 1Z0-051 & 1Z0-052 11g

Is there a waiting period for taking the second part of the administrative certified associate exam 1Z0-052?
Should it be taken right away or immediately after 1Z0-052?

1Z0-052 isn't really the 'second' part of the certification. It is generally taken second, but that's not a requirement. The order you take the tests in is completely arbitrary. Most people take 051 first and 052 second, but that's not required. I talk about that in my blog here:
Oracle Certification Prep: What Order Should I take Oracle Certification Exams In?
That said, I'm going to have to disagree with John (something I don't do often). Unless you are really comfortable with the material for both exams, I would not recommend taking them both in one day. John is an extremely knowledgeable DBA and splitting his concentration between two exams is not a problem. For that matter, I originally became an Oracle OCP when I worked for Oracle's Support team. They had Prometric create a lab in the building where we worked for a day. Since they were only going to be there the one day, I took all four of the tests required at the time for the 7.3 certification -- two before lunch and two after. Again, though, I was very familiar with the information being tested.
If you are not 100% confident of your mastery of the material, I think that you will have a greater chance of success if the tests are separated by at least a day or two so that you can focus all of your concentration on one at a time. The overlap between 051 and 052 is not very significant and 052 is generally considered to be the more difficult of the two exams. It is more important that you take enough time preparing for it that you are comfortable with the information than taking it as soon as possible after passing 051.

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!

...The SQL exam 051 or 061 by itself doesn't have value. But the SQL Expert exam 047 is a standalone certification exam.
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.

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.

1z0-051 Dealing with the exam

Hi
I'm preparing 4 1z0-051 exam and i want to master dealing with multi choice questions and lab question and all the detail about the exam technics not the books or references

thnk you for response I've read the resources you support me with, and still have some questions:
1) How can i review the unmarked questions if i discover that my answer is wrong ??
Its actually a while since i took an oracle cert exam, and the last one i took the 'skin' had changed so it was a little different to the classic style. But the basics are the same.
I dont have a exam in front of me as i write this.
There are buttons to go through to NEXT and PREVIOUS questions. If you are at the end of the exam and wish to go to the beginning the thats a lot of previous buttons. But you an goto the review page at the end and jump to the question you require.
You have the option of tagging any as marked for review. The idea is if you have time at the end you can focus your review the questions you have tagged
The final page (and there may well be a button to go this on every page, but dont quote me) while have the means to select
whether you wish to review all questions: all 'unmarked' questions, or 'all tagged for review' questions. The way this worked varied
on the last exam i took; the previous classic style use to show all questions with a checked and a colour to show if the question
had been answered and had been tagged for review. The last exam i took i think the final page worked with buttons used to filter
the questions it dsipayed to just to from between:
- All questions
- Questions not fully answered.
- Questions not tagged for review.
A question is not fully answered if the candidate has not given a sufficient number of answers to which satisfies the question criteria.
To demonstrate this:
- Let us consider the question:
Q.34 Choose the following cities where they are not the capital city of the associated country:
A: Dublin is the capital city of the Republic of Ireland
B: Beijing is the capital city of India
C: Moscow is the capital city of Russia
D: Washington is the capital of England
Select the best two answers:Notes:
(1) Now B and D are obviously the correct answers, and A and C incorrect.
(2) Be aware that maybe 3% of candidates as this point would have failed to read the question correctly and will mark A and C as correct, +(Quote(my old Chemistry teacher): if all else fails read the question)+.
(3) If the candidate only checked one answer, say 'C' then this question would appear on the list of unmarked questions for review and the candidate would not receive marks for the question.
(4) The the question had said select one or more correct answers and the candidate had checked C only, then the question would NOT appear on the list of unmarked questions. In general high exams such as OCP will contain more questions of the form select one or more possible answers.
You may find it is possible to grey incorrect answers by right clicking them. This can be useful to focus on the correct answers. You can actually do the same thing by writing it on the marker board you are given.
Let us say I come to the question above. Let us say I know for sure 'C' that Russia is the capital of Moscow is true so i eliminate that (Either right to grey it out or write Q34: C-X on my marker board. I know London is the Capital of England so therefore +D: Washington is the capital of england so i check 'D' as I know that is correct. But let us say i am not sure about A B, which is true and which is false.
- I mark this question for review as I am not sure about it and perhaps it is worth coming back to later +(If I have time)+. I might make a mark Q34 capitals on by marker board so i know which one to come back to. Even if i dont know the last answer i need to mark i will have wanted to have guessed it by the time i finished the exam. I would certainly want to have made a guess by the end of the exam, so if i am running short of time i would guess as I might not have time to return, if i am well up on time i might leave it unmarked for now.
- One danger of greying out incorrect answers is one may forget to check the correct answers. I remember finishing an exam and discovering on the review screen i had not answered a question. I had greyed out the wrong answers but forgotten to check the right answers! i would have gotten no marked, as it is checked answers that count. Please be aware greying out of answers are only a help to the candidate and may not be present on all exams
- Sometimes drag and drop answers may also be present. There may also be exhibits to view; and you should note how these may be tiled onto the screen. Beware of spending too much time looking at these.
2) for multi choice questions if i have a - choose all that apply- question and i've chose just one answer and it was right .Do I take a part of the mark of the question??
and if i chose all the right answers and one wrong .Do i loose all the mark of the question??In all cases if you fail to select all correct answers you will recieve no marks for the question

what's the grading policy?? i didn't find a topic about this
With Oracle Certification exams one either passes or fails. The pass percentage appears on your exam score report. It does not appear on your certification. The pass mark is chosen after reviewing the exam at the end of beta testing stage, and may be adjusted in production if a revision is demeed necessary.
