Oracle 10G OCA exam

hi anyone took oracle 10G OCA 1z0-042 exam?
Just want to ask for some advice and guide regarding the exam.
Is the OCA 1z0-042 exam questions more on situational, pl/sql commands or the concepts?

Hi JrOraDBA,
I think what Hub is trying to say is that Testking is a braindump company and using them is considered cheating; and you can lose your certifications when you're caught using them. You sound like an honest person and you're right to want to spend your money wisely, it is your future you're trying to secure; correct? ;)
Before you jump into any training, study guides, mock exams, or anything of the sort, it would be best for you to verify that the websites you use are not going to put your certifications at risk. Here are some links that will help you:

    Believe me, just for the certification sake you wanna be OCA?
    I have come across of people who simply read test exam question, go to the testing centers and do pass the exams. What they really loosing here with this approch is that no confidence of their skills, not reading Oracle docs and testing the same, and when they face interview they had to find really some difficult question where there won't be any multiple choice list. This make the interviewrs or the concern person feeling that the OCA/P has really no strength.
    I would rather keep myslef reading the docs and doing the R&D before I appear for the exam.
    As you said, you don't want to spend much money for getting OCA, its like wasting your money completing an OCA, if you don't answer interviewer questions and didn't get the job.
    I am not discouraging you, rather, trying to put you on some confidence ROAD.

  • Oracle 10g  OCA  exams pass question

    Please does anyone know any website where oracle 10g pass exam are posted for free or if anyone has got some pass exams could you post them please.
    Thanks in advance

    You only wanted to pass OCA certifiation by getting dump of questions.
    It would be more worthy that you make practice and once you are confident with the subject, then appear for exam, dont simply depend on dummy question to pass OCA. Believe me, this is worthless.
    Hint: search at yahoo groups for ocpfree.

  • Preparation for Oracle 10g OCA and OCP exams

    Hi all,
    I am studying for my first Oracle 10g OCA exam. Thus far, I have the Transcender exam prep software and book from Oracle Press for the OCA/OCP exams with Oracle 10g. With a test Oracle 10g database to practice on while I study, am I on the right path?
    Thanks

    Use the http://education.oracle.com OR http://otn.oracle.com as your portal - you'll see the Certification link on either one. From the Certification page you will be able to drill down to the objectives and requirements of the exam. I suggest you use that as a checklist, as the various books and sample exams have been known to include mistakes or miss items.
    In addition, you should be familiar with the first few chapters of the Oracle Concepts manual and also, preferably, the first few chapters of the DB Admin Guide - both available from http://tahiti.oracle.com
    A great motto while learning is "trust no one - verify everything"

  • Should I go for Oracle 10g OCA/OCP or 11g OCA/OCP Certification?

    Hi all,
    I am lil bit confuse to decide about my oracle core dba certification.
    Please help me to know, as per the present requirements of the business organizations.
    ***Should I go for Oracle 10g OCA/OCP or 11g OCA/OCP Certification?***
    Hope u guys answer me earliest.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Most likely, it doesn't matter too much. I doubt that most employers are terribly concerned with what recent version of Oracle you have a certification on.
    That said, if it matters
    - What does your organization use? What are their plans to upgrade? If your company still uses 9.2 primarily and has plans to upgrade to 10.2 this year, you're probably better off with a 10g certification. If your company is already running mostly 11.2, you're probably better off with an 11g certification.
    - What do most employers in your particular part of the world tend to use? What do job postings in your particular part of the world generally list?

  • Study material for Oracle 10g OCA certification

    Hi every one.
    My Name is Ash living in Edmonton Canada.
    Currently, I am trying to prepare to take the OCA exam. My study material is "OCA 10g Administration 1 Study Guide by Chip DaWes, Bob Bryta, Joseph C.Johnson, Mathew Welshan". I am not sure if this is the right study material. Could any body please give me a feed back, how I can prepare for the exam? Also I would to know if there a local oracle group in Edmonton vicinity

    Hello Ash,
    I am also enrolled in an OCA course in the beginning of June 08, and I have used that, the Oracle Database 10g : Administration Workshop 1, and purchased the pass4sure CD.
    I recommend against the pass4sure, only because the PDF's had some sort of security lock, and I was unable to open them, even though I legitimately purchased the product.
    Good luck!

  • Oracle 10G OCA certification details?

    Hi,
    I would like to get the below details regarding 10g OCA?
    1) Total papers to become an OCA?
    2) wat are the papers ?
    3) Cost of each papers ? (in $)
    4) where can I find Dumps? If you friends can send me dumps at my gmail Id (nahar.navin@gmail ID)...
    I am new to this forum, so any advise will help me. :)
    Looking forward for help from you people.
    Thanks in advance,
    Navin

    Asking for dumpsAnd remember that cheaters who are caught will lose their certification and perhaps lose their chance at any certification in the industry. Using Brain Dumps is considered cheating. Using Gunners is considered cheating. Passing an exam based on purely memorized material without understanding the material is as bad as cheating in the long run.
    Please refer to this excelent post by Hans Forbrich:

  • Study Material - Oracle 9i - OCA Exams

    I am a software developer. I would like to attempt OCA exams in next 3 months. I have a bit work experience in Oracle 9i. But i would like to prepare myself for OCA exam papers.
    So, could someone please suggest me the way forward.
    If you have any study materials for preparation, please send me the materials to my official id - [email protected]
    Thanks
    Ilangkumaran.

    Which exam(s)?
    Assuming you mean 9i Database, path and exam topics (click an exam link e.g. 1Z0-031) can be found on the OU site:
    http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=49
    Have you planned on taking courses? The official course material matches the exam topics (or if it's the other way around). If not, then the Concepts guide (which is a must read anyway) from the docu library goes through all the basics. That coupled with a lab database that yourself have installed and created, you'll have a nice study environment. Download's here.

  • Oracle 10G OCA Syllabus based study material

    Hello Friends,
    I am very new in oracle studies and want to pursue oca exam. I have downloaded oca syllabus from oracle site and some (around 1 GB) study material from different web sites.
    My problem is that; when i goes through these study materials these are :
    A. Not as per syllabus
    B. Not covers all the topics of syllabus
    C. Not Based on syllabus
    D. Not in the sequence; as described in syllabus
    So, from where i can get/buy/download the best SBSM (Syllabus based study material) which can be help for not only pass the exam; but also give me satisfaction and my target for getting around 95% marks.
    A reply in this regard will encourage me..!
    Thanks and Regards a lot..!

    Girish,
    First marks are not from the study material.Even if you prepare really well from the best ever study but get confused in the exam , there will be no recovery and the % will come down.You are starting to prepare so I shall say to you, don't look for the % in the exams.I wont reveal my % in my exams here as I don't like but its "high".But I have seen people with 99%/100% fluncking in the interview/discussions within minutes on very basic questions.Heck I can't forget,in an interview when was asked a 99% scorer in Oracle Architecture exam,what is instance recovery ,he said he never read it!Don't get into % game,just prepare well and go for it.An exam doesn't tell completely whether you are really good in that field.Another example of the same ,one of my friend just now wrote OCM and cleared it and other friend failed in it.The one who failed is more senior and much more experienced in the extreme technologies like RAC,DG and all that but despite that, he faced lots of issues.So it doesn't mean he is bad,doesn't know thigns.Just at that time ,he was not having that "moment" clicked.
    After all this "big lecture" , get the exam preparation series from Oracle Press and also check back the notes for preparation from Oracle-base.com,site maintained by Tim Hall.
    I shall say in the last, for the best,most accurate and most latest study material,come to Oracle University and take Oracle course.You in any case, have to take one course from Oracle to achieve your ocp crendential.There is very strict quality control maintained in OU so the experience will be good.I am not sure about your place but as you are very near to Delhi so if you want,let me know , I shall pass on information about the centers.
    Aman....

  • Oracle9i/Oracle 10g OCA certification

    I have worked on Oracle 9i database and i have basic knowledge about Sql commands and i am planning to go for Oracle 10g Certification does it make any difference if i do not take ORACLE 9i Certification and directly go on to do my Oracle 10g Certification .
    Help Me

    You are very much eligible for writing Oracle 10g OCP, even if you have experience in Oracle 9i. What you can do is, read the Oracle 10g New Features, and then you will have both Oracle 9i & 10g knowledge.
    Best of luck.

  • Oracle 10g OCA/OCP - There is a one-way path?

    Hello.
    I' m planning to undergo the 1z0-042/1z0-043 exams.
    1)Following the suggested path I have to undergo FIRST one of the [1z0-007, 1z0-47,1z0-51] exams and THEN the 1z0-042 to obtain OCA.
    Is it possible in the other way? (FIRST 1z0-042 and THEN one of the [1z0-007, 1z0-47,1z0-51]
    2)In the same way,is it possible after OCA, FIRST get through the 1z0-043 exam and THEN follow and complete [One of the instructor-led online o in-class courses] and Complete the course submission form to obtain OCP?
    3)Is possible to undergo FIRST 1z0-042 THEN 1z0-043 and AFTER the 1z0-047 + follow and complete [One of the instructor-led online o in-class courses] and Complete the course submission form to obtain OCP?
    The components are the same.What differs is the order.
    Thanks

    Paolo FilippiGenerally you can do any exams/courses you like in whatever order you like (There are exceptions ... i think certain Jaa certifications have certain order pre-requisites ... usually arround written assignments).
    HOWEVER, you will not recieve any certifications until you meet all the pre-requisites for that certiication:
    Thus if you first pass 1z0-043 .... you will receive no certifications as you have not fulfilled all prerequsites for any certification.
    If you thn passed 1z0-042 .... you will still receive no certifications as you have still not fulfilled all pre-requsites for any certification.
    If you then attended an accreditted course satisifiying the 10 DBA OCP and then submitted and had it validated you will still receive no certifications as you have still not fulfilled all pre-requsites for any certification.
    If you then passed 1z0-047 would at that receive the following certifications close to simulataneously as you have fulfiled pre-requisites
    :: SQL OCE, 10g DBA OCA, 10g DBA OCP. (The 10g DBA OCA is sort of irrelevant at this point).
    Conversely Steve Zodiac:
    - Passed 1z0-047 and was awarded SQL OCE as he had fulfilled all pre-requisites
    - Passed 1z0-042 and was awarded 10g DBA OCA as he had fulfilled all pre-requisites
    -- Attended a course relevant to 10g DBA OCP and got it validated.
    - Passed 1z0-043 and was awarded 10g DBA OCA as he had fulfilled all pre-requisites
    :: The difference will Seve Zodiac is he got interim certification awards quicker.
    Incidently i recommend people study for 1z0-051 rather than taking 1z0-047 directly as the latter is mor difficult ( And specially if anyne has attempted to put the SQL exam last ;) )
    The exam order 1z0-051 - 1z0-042 and 1z0-043 should certainly be preferable for most people, but there are exceptions.
