OCA 10g 1Z0-042 exam; Topics in the book 'OCP All In One Exam Guide'

Hello All
The book is divided into Part I (for 1Z0-042), and Part II (1Z0-043), however the Exam Topics doc on the website seems to cover more than is in Part I. E.g. Flashback is discussed in Chapter 29, a full seven Chapetrs into Part II!!
Can anyone offer definitive advice on the chapters to study, and also if this book covers all the topics? Is the Sybex book more accurately laid out in terms of topics?
Finally, I am considering buying the NetG tutorial disks, and the same question as above, do they cover all the material? I don't want to shell out £700 for nothing(!)
Thanks all

I must have been have been at the horses head. This is a sort of cross reference.
This is one of the first exam I did. (It probably cross references from the books to the exam topics - actually it looks like it juest references between books!).
I worked from the Oracle Press book as master the attacked the Sybex.
I learnt my lesson. I now start off first with official authorative exam topics and build my notes framework from that.

  • OCA 10g IZO-042 , Practicing exam, tips to get good score

    I am practicing questions given at the end of each chapter in Oracle Database 10g OCP Certification All-in-One Exam Guide book, but hardly 50-60% are getting correct...wondering for tips to score higher....

    01) In addition to any available book in the market for OCA/OCP preparation, I would strongly advice and suggest using Oracle Student Guides/Oracle ILT Materials for your OCA/OCP preparation.
    02) Most of the theoretical and logical questions in the real exam are asked from these guides/materials concepts or chapters.
    03) These student guides are more simplified and very easy to understand, and have very précised and handy information.
    04) The information or concepts of Oracle Student Guides/Oracle ILT Materials have been abstracted, prepared, and developed using the bunch of Oracle Documentations.
    05) For writing Oracle Certification Exams, it's very hard to prepare the whole repository of Oracle Documentations. That's why; Oracle University prepared the précised and concise Student Guides/ITL Materials.
    06) After finishing thoroughly reading these guides, as many times as you can, till you get the concepts from this materials, the next step is preparing the practice exams, before you take up the real exam.
    07) In my opinion and my experience in writing OCP Exams, the practice exams of Self Test Software and Transcender are highly recommended for preparing the OCA/OCP/OCE Exams.
    08) This will give you the similar look and feel, and the pattern of the real exam, and helps you manage in real exam.
    09) All most of all the practice questions from these test engines (Self Test Software and Transcender) are developed and derived from Oracle Student Guides/Oracle ILT Materials Concepts.
    10) Never mug up the practice exam questions and answers, instead try understanding the question and the answer, if needed for any syntax or command sort of questions, do the paper work i.e write the question, syntax or command, and answers in the paper to remember and understand.
    11) Concisely what I would suggest is, read the Oracle Student Guides/ILT Materials meticulously as much as you can and do more practice the questions of the test engines (Self Test Software and Transcender) for your Oracle Certification Exam Preparation.
    Above points are extracted from my blog.

  • ORACLE 10G- 1Z0-042 PRACTISE TESTS

    Hi All,
    Does anyone know if pass-guarantee.com practise tests for Oracle 10g 1Z0-042 is a good preparation tool for the above exams?
    If it is , why is Oracle not recommending them?
    Surprisingly though I am told some of their questions appear verbatim on the real exams.
    Why don't they accept any other method of payment other than Major Credit Cards?
    Selftest software has still not yet released their OCA. That is why I am curious to find other good vendors.2005 is soon comming to an end.
    Thanks

    I had a quick look at the site of pass-guarantee.com and I have to say that I'd rather throw my money into the sewer than spending one penny with them. What a lousy website. No matter how good there exams might be - if the storefront looks as bad as this I run, not walk, away.

    Hi @balubeto 
    I located a software removal utility for you but if you have other HP printers or scanners you may perform the more basica uninstall.

  • The books are all in my library but when I try to open them the app glitches and closes out.

    I have an iPod 4g and I had deleted the ibooks app but downloaded it again. The books are all in my library but when I try to open them the app glitches and closes out. Before the app update (ios 7) and after the update it hadn't worked (for the past week).

    I think I have found an answer on another page! If anyone else wants to know just do this:
    Hold down the home and sleep button (if the turn off button comes up just ignore it) and when you see the apple logo release the buttons and let it wake up!
    It worked for me and seem to work for a lot of people. Hope this helps!!

  • 10g Admin OCA Path- 1Z0-042

    Hi all,
    I am happy to tell you that I have cleared 1Z0-047 exam. Now I need to prepare for 1Z0-042, I have some queries regarding the same.
    1. For 1Z0-047 exam, I studied on my own and could manage to clear the examination (not to boast myself, since I am working, I dint find time to attend classes and also my friend had asked me to study on my own for this exam).
    Can I also study for 1Z0-042 on my own and clear the exam or is it required to go for coaching?
    2. I am from Bangalore and here except at Oracle University, none of the training institutes will conduct classes in 10g ( I am not sure about this, if anyone knows any training institutes (other than Oracle university) who conduct classes in 10g Admin/1Z0-042 exam and fees being minimal, please reply with the address and phone number).
    So can I still opt for Oracle 9i admin classes and write Oracle 10g admin exam?
    3. If I study on my own, is the prescribed book by Chip Dawes sufficient?
    Regards
    Praveen

    this seems good.

    You can study for ANY Oracle exam on your own. (except perhaps OCM exams, if you get that far you should know what its about yourself).
    However for some Certifications you may have to attend an authroized hands-on course from an authorized provided.
    This does not affect you with regard to 1z0-042 for 10g DBA OCA; but DOES affect you if you go on for 10g DBA OCP.
    2. I am from Bangalore and here except at Oracle University, none of the training institutes will conduct classes in 10g ( I am not sure about this, if anyone knows any training institutes (other than Oracle university) who conduct classes in 10g Admin/1Z0-042 exam and fees being minimal, please reply with the address and phone number).
    So can I still opt for Oracle 9i admin classes and write Oracle 10g admin exam?
    The simple answer is No. This will not get you a 10g OCP certification (and it wont get you a 9g OCP certification).
    If you take a 9i authorized WDP program you will need to take 1z0-031 for your 9i DBA OCA (you already have 1z0-047).
    You can then take 1z0-032 and 1z0-033 for your 9i DBA OCP. (A properly AUTHORIZED WDP class from an authorized provider will count as hands-on).
    As a 9i DBA OCP you can then take 1z0-040 to attain a 10g DBA OCP with no further hands on courses. (You could also have taken 1z0-042+1z0-043 as an alternative to 1z0-040).
    However if you simply pass 1z0-042+1z0-043 and do not present a course from the 10g DBA OCP approved course list you will not receive a 10g DBA OCP certificate.
    All the info you need can be had by drilling down from [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=151]
    3. If I study on my own, is the prescribed book by Chip Dawes sufficient?
    The Dawes authors or part authors many books; I assume in this case you mean the sybex book wrt the 10g DBA OCA exam. This book is probably adequate for the exam, though you are advised also to seek other authorized certification-safe material and traiing and to become familiar with online documentation etc. Please rmember the topics have changed slightly since the book was written, the exam is now 10gR2 based; the book is 10gR1, though changes are not great.
    Regards
    Praveen
    Edited by: user11183889 on Oct 19, 2009 12:14 PMYou have two choices:
    1) Locate a suitable authorized WDP program provider, take the classes, and take the 9i DBA exams and to obtain a 9i DBA OCP then take further exam(s) to obtain a 10g DBA OCP.
    or
    2) Continue taking 1z0-042 and 1z0-043; but be very aware the 10g DBA OCP certification will not be obtained until you attend a hands on class. Please realise this can be expensive so locate courses that may before embarking. Remember that courses such as 10g Dataguard administation are 3 days courses and are cheaper. These are best attended at Oracle University. Also be aware 10g classes are being gradually replaced by 11g classes; so 10g classes may become rarer.
    (Please be aware there appear to have been some examples of the WDP programme being delivered badly. You are recommended to try to contact previous students to confirm the course is delivered well by the institute you choose).
    Please be aware at a WDP you a limited to a maximum of 6 hours tution a week MAXIMUM.

  • Any way to move all TOC topics to a book without doing each one individually?

    TCS1
    FM8
    RH7
    Windows XP
    I am in the process of creating a combination TOC that includes TOCs from the books that were added by reference to my RH project.
    The first step in creating a combination TOC is to create a New TOC book in each individual book TOC and then move the topics in that TOC under the book, then create the combination TOC.  Is there any quick and easy way to move topics into a book without doing it individually?  I have several hundred topics and it sure would save time.
    Thanks as always.

    Faster than one by one, do this:
    Open a TOC containing the topics you want.
    Select all topics and copy them (CTRL-A, CTRL-C).
    Open the TOC you want to put topics into.
    Paste (CTRL-V).
