Preparation for APEX Certification 1Z0-450

Can anyone who has taken the APEX Certification explain the nature of the exam (multiple choice? build an actual application?) and suggested preparation?
I have taken intermediate training and the Advanced Workshop and viewed the objectives at http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_450 and the video at http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/2010/04/0235.html.
However, I am hoping someone can provide some additional details. Without having a practice exam, it's hard to gauge my level of preparedness.
Thanks

No problem at all :)
LoL. i got my certificate yesterday, appearantly it was laying in a desk somewhere at work for months already :-)
Since the exam opened up again i have been trying to motivate some collegues to apply for it aswel. Because of this i have been trying to remember some of the types of questions that were asked.
So far i've come up with the following types of questions:
Themes & templates:
This would be things like what is the best way to apply a theme to all applications in a workspace.
Creating label templates for things used in page often (<hr> with 100% width for example)
Object Browser, and Query builder:
How to make a joined query using the query builder without selecting the column that is being joined on
Tabs:
How to work with them, and how to display them conditionally
Security:
How does LDAP work, how does an access control list work?
Interactive reports:
How do you add a column to a report and make it visible to all users
Other reports:
Master detail, Calendar
You always have to pick one or more answers from a list. Some of them are a little confusing, and if you would really like to "practice" for the exam the only advice i can give you is try to go trough the process of creating all types of regions at least once, so you know in what order the steps come, because that is the thing you will probably hesitate most about :-)

Hi janki,
the best preparation is to use LabVIEW. Try to understand how the functions work. Work with Graphs and Charts. Understand how loops are working, when and why they stop and ... .
You should also use the forums search, there are a lot of threads about certification.

How to prepare for ABAP certification?

Hi,
I'm currently pursuing my ABAP certification. I've completed the training course and I've started to prepare for the certification. I've heard from a lot of people that the certification exam is really tricky and difficult to get through. A lot of well prepared people whom I've known, have failed to clear the exam. I'm not sure as to how the preparation should be. Do I complete the topics with higher weightage first and then move on to the lesser ones (or) do I just go through the topics as per the order in the training material???
I need your guidance as to how to prepare effectively for this certification.
Any other suggestions apart from the two mentioned would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!!

Deepak.M

Hi,

Kindly dont ask regarding certifications... better consult the SAP CERTIFICATION Partners like SIEMENS.
They would give you great guidance.

How to prepare for XI Certification

Hi Experts,
This Raj, working as SAP -ABAP consultant. i want to do XI certification.
Is XI contents any specific area for ABAP...?,
give me clear idea about it.
Thanks & Regards
Raj.

Hi Rajasekaran,
To do XI certification you should have good knowledge of XI first. As you mentioned that you are a ABAP consultant and I suppose you do not have much knowledge of XI till now, so start learning XI first and then go for certification. There are two types of XI certification: Technical Consultant and Development Consultant. Being a developer you will go for Development Certification in XI stream. Below are few links that will guide you for certification need and what are the requisites for XI certifcation:

Preparing for APEX 4

Concerning the best practice for upgrading to the upcoming version 4, what is the preferred course of action?
We are currently at version 3.1.2.00.02.
We have not upgraded to 3.2 since we would not use the new functionality.
When version 4 arrives, is the plan to be able to upgrade from our current version, or will it be necessary to go to 3.2 first?
Just asking so we are in the best position to upgrade in the future.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I don't work for Oracle, so I can't speak authoritively....
However historically new releases of APEX have had an excellent track record of providing an upgrade path from older versions, in other words you didn't need to be on version X-1 to upgrade to version X, you could infact be on version X-2, X-3 etc.
So, in short I would say upgrade to 3.2 if you need to (bear in mind that 3.2 had some security patches and other features - it wasn't just forms conversion stuff in there), there has also subsequently been the 3.2.1 patch which again patches some things that may or may not affect you.
If you don't want to upgrade to 3.2 then I can say pretty confidently that you're going to be able to upgrade to 4.0 from your current version. I certainly haven't seen or heard anything to the contrary that the Oracle team are planning to break with their tradition as far as upgrades go.
Hopefully one of the Oracle folks will jump in and give you a 'real' answer to this.
John.

Guidance For Doing Certification in SAP ABAP through Online Training.

Happy New Year to All the Members of SAP Community Network,

Please Help to find the answers of the Above Questions .
Thanx

Rizu Yadav

Hi,
Wow, that sounds like pretty bad service from your training centre. I would take my business elsewhere.
Anyway, I might be able to help a little questions 3 and 4. I did my ABAP certification a few years ago.
"3. What Is the prerequisite for SAP ABAP Crtification through OLT like we know candidate must have a basic knowledge of any programming language but upto what extend ?"
To learn ABAP you need to know programming basics. It's not much different to other languages. To become certified you need broad ABAP & SAP knowledge and (ideally) some real experience.
"4. How much time a candidate must devote and how a candidate prepare a blue print or a time table for preparing for there certification exam as well as having in depth knowledge of ABAP"
It took me about 6 months (part-time) of rereading the course notes, practicing on sample tests, and making up sample questions.
Here are some tips on what to do in the certification exam itself:

Hi, I am creating a connection using pmrep by using the below command:- Createconnection -s "Microsoft SQL Server" -n <connection_name> -u <Conn_username> -p <Conn_pwd> -l <####> -b <dbname> -v <Servername> Here the -l option denotes code page which is mandatory. When I create the connection manually from workflow manager, I use code page as ""MS Windows Latin 1 (ANSI), superset of Latin1". However the same value is not valid when I use in the above command with -l option.It gives the error message as:- "Unknown code page "MS Windows Latin 1 (ANSI), superset of Latin1" specified,Valid code pages are:US-ASCII, Latin1, ISO-8859-2, ISO-8859-3, ISO-8859-4, ISO-8859-5, ISO-8859-6, ISO-8859-7, ISO-8859-8, ISO-8859-9, ISO-8859-10, JapanEUC, UTF-8, ISO-8859-15, IBM833, IBM834, MS874, IBM930, IBM933, IBM935, MS936, IBM937, IBM939, MS949, MS950, IBM1047, UTF-16BE, UTF-16LE, MS1361, gb18030, MS932, IBM037, IBM273, IBM280, IBM285, IBM297, IBM500, MS1250, MS1251, MS1252, MS1253, MS1254, MS1255, MS1256, MS1257, MS1258, JEF, KEIS, JIPSE, UNISYS, MELCOM, JEF-K, KEIS-K, JIPSE-K, UNISYS-K, MELCOM-K, JP-EBCDIC, JP-EBCDIK, HKSCS, UTF-32BE, UTF-32LE, UTF-16_PlatformEndian, UTF-16_OppositeEndian, UTF-32_PlatformEndian, UTF-32_OppositeEndian, UTF-7, IMAP-mailbox-name, SCSU, BOCU-1, CESU-8, IBM367, ISO-8859-13, IBM-942, IBM-943, IBM-33722, IBM-5050, IBM-1373, IBM-950, IBM-1375, IBM-1386, GB2312, GB_2312-80, IBM-964, IBM-949, cp949c, EUC-KR, IBM-971, KSC_5601, IBM-1363, IBM-1162, IBM-874, IBM437, cp850, cp851, IBM852, IBM855, cp856, cp857, cp858, cp860, cp861, cp862, cp863, cp864, cp865, cp866, IBM-867, cp868, cp869, KOI8-R, IBM-901, IBM-902, cp922, IBM-4909, IBM-1250, IBM-1251, IBM-1255, IBM-5351, IBM-1256, IBM-5352, IBM-1257, IBM-5353, IBM-1258, macintosh, x-mac-greek, x-mac-cyrillic, x-mac-centraleurroman, x-mac-turkish, hp-roman8, Adobe-Standard-Encoding, IBM-1277, cp1006, cp1098, cp1124, cp1125, IBM-1129, cp1131, IBM-1133, cp1381,ISO-2022-JP, JIS_Encoding, ISO-2022-JP-2, JIS7, JIS8, ISO-2022-KR, IBM-25546, ISO-2022-CN, ISO-2022-CN-EXT, HZ-GB-2312, JIS_X0201, windows-57002, windows-57003, windows-57011, windows-57010, windows-57007, windows-57004, windows-57005, windows-57008, windows-57009, LMBCS-1, LMBCS-2, LMBCS-3, LMBCS-4, LMBCS-5, LMBCS-6,LMBCS-8, LMBCS-11, LMBCS-16, LMBCS-17, LMBCS-18, LMBCS-19, IBM277, IBM278, IBM284, IBM290, IBM420, IBM424, IBM-803, IBM-838, IBM870, IBM871, IBM-875, IBM918, IBM-1025, IBM1026, IBM-1097, IBM-1112, IBM-1122, IBM-1123, IBM-1130, IBM-1132, IBM-1140, IBM-1141, IBM-1142, IBM-1143, IBM-1144, IBM-1145, IBM-1146, IBM-1147, IBM-1148, IBM-1149, IBM-1153, IBM-1154, IBM-1155, IBM-1156, IBM-1157, IBM-1158, IBM-1160, IBM-1164, IBM-1364, IBM-1371, IBM-1388, IBM-1390, IBM-1399, IBM-16684, IBM-4899, IBM-4971, IBM-12712, IBM-16804, IBM-1137, IBM-5123, IBM-8482, IBM-37-s390, IBM-1047-s390, IBM-1140-s390, IBM-1142-s390, IBM-1143-s390, IBM-1144-s390, IBM-1145-s390, IBM-1146-s390, IBM-1147-s390, IBM-1148-s390, IBM-1149-s390, IBM-1153-s390, IBM-12712-s390, IBM-16804-s390, ebcdic-xml-us, is-960, IBM1159, IBM13121, IBM13124, IBM4933, IBM835, IBM836, IBM837.Failed to execute Createconnection."

Eligibility for FI certification exams

Hi,
One of my friend is preparing for FI certification, however, he is still student of Bachelor of Commerce and doesn't have any practical financial experience nor SAP user.
I would like to know your expert opinion that *is he eligible for FI certification exam*? where he has good knowledge for SAP FI.
Look forward from you soon.
Thanks and best regards,
Ajay

My opinion is that he should finish Bachelor of Commerce program first. CA is also a very good career. If Heu2019s happy then stay because thatu2018s the ultimate goal. If youu2019re not so happy then change to IT.
But he should remember grass always looks greener on the other side.

1Z0-450 preparation

Dear all,
I'm preparing for 1Z0-450 by reading the docs and practicing the development so far. Is there any recommended practice software for the test? I know that Oracle doesn't recommend any for this test....
best regards,

this is a hurried answer from me.

How to prepare for 1z0-050 exam

Can u help me guiding how to prepare for 1z0-050 exam. It will be every much useful to me.
Thank
Arunkumar Gupta

There's a new guide available for this test not mentioned in the supplied thread:
"Study Guide for 1Z0-050: Oracle Database 11g: New Features for Administrators: Oracle Certification Prep"
It's available at Amazon.com. Be aware that it is very condensed -- it's a study guide rather than a textbook. It should not be the sole source of your preparation for this test. On the plus side, I don't believe it to have near the number of errors that exist in the Oracle Press book for this test. You can also borrow it for free if you have a Kindle and are an Amazon Prime member.
Full Disclosure. I am the author.
