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 1Z0-007: From where to start?

Dear All!
I am new to oracle. I know a little bit about SQL ( Its basic syntax). Now I want to move on to the certification track.( OCA => OCP ). There first, I will have to pass the exam 1Z0-007 ( If I am not mistaken). I want to prepare myself for the said exam. Will any one of you will guide me that from where should I start? I mean, which book, which study material, links etc. As I am new to your community and this is my first message. Kindly accept my apologies If I have done any mistake.
Thanks & Regards

Exam 1Z0-007

I have appeared "Exam 1Z0-007 Introduction to Oracle9i: SQL" on 2008. After that I was
unable to appear other exams related to Oracle certification. Now if I appear
"Oracle Database 10g: Administration I 1Z0-042", then will I be able to get
Oracle Certified Associate certificate.

Your 1z0-007 will count as a qualifying exam for SQL ... reference: https://blogs.oracle.com/certification/entry/0864_05
You are strongly advised to consider the implications of the upcoming 10g exam retirements ... https://blogs.oracle.com/certification/entry/1060_01
If particular if you are intending to submit 10g training towards DBA OCP training that training will only count towards a 10g DBA OCP certification; the 1z0-043 needing to be passed by the march cutoff date in 2015. If you get 10g DBA OCA and then need to achieve DBA certification via 1z0-34/1z0-067 you will need to satisfy the training requirement for those exams; which may mean you might need to attend additional training.

Is UCertify any good for exam 1Z0-007?

Hi, I am thiking about buying UCertify practise questions for exam 1Z0-007, i am wondering if anyone has used it in the past and how good is their product?
I can't afford Transcender prep material, the other option is SelfTest but they provide money back guarentee in 2nd shot. Ucertify offers more practise questions then SelfTest but really don't know how good they are?
Does SelfTest offer same practise questions which comes in Oracle press book CD?
I have already studied the sybex and Oracle press book but there are few topics which you really can't memorized them like functions , sybex book has covered alot of functions as compared to Oracle press book and i know the half of them becuase i have used them in my job. So if i buy SelfTest practise questions then do i need to practise only those functions which have been covered in practise exams? Or other function topics can be asked in real exam?
Thanks

ThanksInteresting question.
Its always good to refer back to [http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/2009/05/the_route_you_choose.html]
Usually I find myself refering people back to that because they are going for unauthorised learning material, but I'll refer you to that as compliment for staying on the right route, and also because it has a couple of tips that might help.
Obviously Transcender/Selftest are the authorised practice test providers, (though they are now both owned by the same company Kaplan IT) and it is not recommended to buy both Transcender and Selftest for the same exam as material may be similar. Generally they market Transcender is better but more expensive (certainly for more recent exams).
[http://www.certguard.com] shows the offical Ucertify website as a SAFE website so you would be IMHO showing sufficient due dillegence in purchasing from this Vendor. Be aware however that unscrupulous third parties may be trying to either pretend to be Ucertify when they are not by setting up similar sounding websites and others may be selling Ucertify material in beach of conditions. Anyway a quick prowse round for me in the UK shows:
A uCertify 1z0-007 is currently on special offer at just under 1/2 the price of the oracle exam
A Selftest Software Practice Test 30 day online access is about just over 1/2 the price of the oracle exam
A Selftest unlimied time software download is a about 80% of the cost of the oracle exam.
At a guess without looking Transcender will probably be 20-30% more expensive than Selftestsoftware.
Bear in mind I have not seen tests from any of these Vendors myself. From my memory, which is imperfect, I recall seeing comments that uCertify was typically of a lower quality than say transcender for some tests. However even if this was true it may have changed.
To some extent for you wishing to minimze expenditure the question is is forking out extra money on practice tests worth it when you may pass the exam anyway?
To some exent there should be enought practice tests between the Orace and Sybex Books and associated CDROM's to cover the exam well enough anyways (though bear in mind this is an older exam was have had an update to topics since exam was printed .... and arguably quality has usually improved somewhat with books for later exams like 1z0-051). You may however have exhausted all he test/practice questions too early, and a test question/exam is mos valuable the first time you see it, and it loses value the second time you see it as you may remember the answer. I try to take practice tests only after I think I have practiced and learnt all the material fully (and this applies even to the end of chapter practices).
My suggestion would be:
Dont answer any practice tests for a week (or two).
Make flashcards of the thing you need to memorize.
Practice and revise through the books you hve (but dont look at questions).
To not revise immediately before taking practice tests.
Then go through the questions at the end of the chapters.
However well you did re-revise the chapter afterwards, make ore flashcards if necessary.
If you got less than say 85% on any chapter redo that 2/3 days later.
Then take CDROM practice tests. If your getting less than 85% then dont go back to the next test but redo difficult areas.
If your getting 80 - 85% on the last CDROM test then take the exam.
(or if you really feel you need to buy some prctice tests).
Lookout in the FAQs for advice by Hans also.

Exam 1Z0-007 and questions from Controlling User Access

Hi,
I am preparing for exam 1Z0-007 and going to give this exam in two weeks. I like to confirm if "Controlling User Access" topic is part of this exam 1Z0-007? I have checked on Oracle website and this topic is not a part if this exam anymore unless they add it later.
Has anyone recently given this exam and were there any questions related to "Controlling User Access" or user Privileges?
Thanks

ThanksI recommend people are very very very careful in answering this question as it could be very easy to breach one's certification candidate agreement.

Edited by: bigdelboy on 27-Dec-2009 04:26
It is certainly true the topic you mentioned is in ISBN: 007-219537-1 printed in 2001.
It is also apparent, unless bigdelboy's eyeball is deceiving him, the topic does not appear in [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_org_id=28&lang=US&p_exam_id=1Z0_007] which is authorative.
I have not followed these things that closely until recently, however this will not be the only example of an OraclePress/Sybex book being left behind because of errata/topic updates etc. These often occur when the exams are update for new releases, eg from 10gR1 to 10gR2; or for when the exam moves from beta to production (sometimes these books are prepared and even pulbished while exam is in beta). In your case I suspect the change quite probably have occured when the exam moved from 9gR1 to 9gR2 or to better accomodate the WDP programme. The exam may also be influenced by the content of Oracle training courses that are being taught and from time to time these will be chaged for a variety of reasons.
How you handle it is up to you ..... you may:
- ignore these topics. IMHO you are always entitled to complain if questions asked did not sigificantly match the published topics and you feel this caused you to fail. (I assume the remedy would be a retake voucher). You can hit a comment button on the question and also a comment button the the end of the exam. This is a sort of negative approproach.
- Go over these topics. If your're serious about Oracle you really need to understand this anyway. See it as an opportunity. A few hours revision ought tosee you able to answer 50% of he topics. This is a positive approach. And this if how certification study ought to be .... sometimes it good to investigate a non examined topic that is interesting.

Exam 1Z0-007 and Ucertify prep kit

Hi,
I am studying for exam 1Z0-007 and like to know if anyone has used ucertufy for exam 1Z0-007 in the past and how good is their prep material? Their demo version looks good but that will be great if someone share his experience of using ucertify for 1z0-007 exam.
Thanks

ThanksBe pleased to read this thread {thread:id=990732}
Be pleased also for correct spelling of Ucertify when searching for their website.
Well as far as I can see the 30 day access to Selftestsoftware is the same as the Ucertify.
But you pays your money and you takes your choice. Or you dont spend any more moeny and keep practicing.
But if you run out of money preparing for 1z0-007 ... (which doesnt get you a certificate) .... then what will you do for he tougher exams?
Best luck with your decisions.

OCP Exam 1Z0-040: Installation Performance

OCP People,
I'm looking at topic areas for the OCP Exam 1Z0-040.
I'm curious about this topic:
"Installation Performance Enhancements"
What should I know about it?
Do many Oracle DBAs think that Oracle 8i,9i installation is too slow?
Perhaps 10g installation is faster?
When I see the term "Performance Enhancements", assuming I'm not reading a spam,
I expect a discussion about speed.
Perhaps there is more to it?
Maybe aside from duration, the 10g install is less likely to error out
or provide a better installation experience?
This could actually be a broad topic. I'm not sure what parts of it
the author of OCP Exam 1Z0-040 wants me to focus upon.
Thoughts anyone?
-Owen

There are improvements with the OUI installation process. Can you list these? Do you know what is different between the 9i and 10g install screens? Have you looked at the New Features manual?

Completed OCA , need study material for OCP exam 1Z0-141

Hi,
As the thread title says.. I have completed my OCA certification for PL/SQL Developer.
Now i am preparing for 1Z0-141 ( Oracle 9i Forms Developer: Build Internet Applications), the problem here is that i couldn't find a book that will help me. Also can you please provide the link to the release which i should download so that i can practise.
Also, do i need to complete any Hands on training for completing the OCP Developer ( Forms ) track, because i dont see anything regarding that published on the certification path ?
Any help in this regard would be appriciated..
Thanks & Regards
Abhishek Vij
Edited by: Abhishek Vij on Mar 1, 2009 9:37 PM

The following book is for 1z0-131/1z0-132 but is still probablly useful. However it is difficult and expensive to get hold of and any second hand editions may be without the cdrom:
Oracle Certified Professional: Building Internet Applications I & II Exam Guide: ISBN: 9780072193336
Also:
(Reference: Oracle Certification Program - Oracle Forms: Build Internet Applications (1z0-141) - gives details on exam topics, materials and additional resources)

-- Oracle Forms Developer 10g: Build Internet Applications
-- I had a quick glance and could not seem to see a self study kit for this course:

Dear sir,
In first exam(1z0-007) i fill up Registration form for sign up as
First-name: Manoj
Mid_name: K
Last_name: Singh
I got prometric id: .............
But in my OCA certificates my name printed as "Manoj Singh".
Why midle name "k" absence/not printed on my oca certificates.
Thanks&Regards:
M K SINGH

Hi Manoj
the people from the OCP certification team are able to reprint your certificate with the correct names. It is true that on the certificates I've got I have also my middle letter, but this information should be in your prometric profile.
Please write an email to [email protected] as Brandye our forum moderator suggested. You will get for sure an answer. I've always got feedback from that email after 2 or 3 days, they are quite efficient!
Cheers.
P.S.: be so kind and give some points to our forum moderator for his answer, thanks

Can i take 1z0-042 (10g admin 1) after 1z0-007 Oracle 9i

Hello ! I have a query about Oracle Certification 10g admin 1 (1z0-042).
I have passed 1z0-007 Oracle SQL 9i in december 28 , 2012.
Now i have decided to complete OCP DBA track in Oracle 10g.
My Questions are,
1. should i need to upgrade?
2. Does1z0-042 complet my OCA ?
3. Will I have a choice to complete OCP by taking 1z0-043 ?
according to this link
Oracle Exam 1Z0-007 Is Being Retired: What Does That Mean to Me?
it's clear that i can take 1z0-042 exam having previous passed1z0-007 (SQL 9i) .
I am just asking this for my complete satisfaction before i am preparing for next exam.
thanks...

1. should i need to upgrade?
2. Does1z0-042 complet my OCA ?
3. Will I have a choice to complete OCP by taking 1z0-043 ?
I'm going to answer these out of order:
2. Yes. Passing 1Z0-042 would make you an Oracle Database 10g Administrator Certified Associate.
3. Once you have the 10g OCA, if you pass 1Z0-043 and complete the required hands-on training, you would become an Oracle Database 10g Administrator Certified Professional.
1. Once you are at step three (i.e. a 10g OCP), you can upgrade to 11g... and soon to 12c. This is good from a career standpoint, but I would not go to the extreme of saying you need to. If it comes to that, you don't need to become certified at all. Certification can help in your career as an Oracle DBA, but it is not a requirement.

i had come to know that exams 1Z0-007 and 1Z0-051 can be passed from home at http://oracle.prometric.com/ as this test does not require a proctor sign-in (test supervisor). so does this mean that i could write these exams in my home without visiting prometric centers??? or does that mean something else??
and how about the exam

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.
