Oracl 9i OCA 1z0-007

[yh_ink]

I am looking forward for OCA 9i certification in three weeks.I have knowledge in sql and PL but worked on sql server alot for the past one year.And i have gone through the exam topics for 1z0-007(as i selected this is instead of 1z0-001).

Can i write this test with minimum of one month serious study.I would like to know the toughness of this exam.

And can i get free study material for 1z0-007 and practice tests.I would really appreciate this help.

Is it worth taking this oca 9i now??
And do the certification really worth after they expire.

please let me know.

Hi.

1) Can i write this test with minimum of one month serious study.I would like to know the toughness of this exam.

It depends on your level of experience. I did the whole OCP for Oracle 7 in two weeks, including revision and sitting the exams, but I had years of experience. If you know what you are doing and you're a quick learner, it is possible.

2) And can i get free study material for 1z0-007 and practice tests.I would really appreciate this help.

The study guides cost money. The only way to get hold of them is to pay or to steal them. I don't recommend the latter.

3) Is it worth taking this oca 9i now??

As long as people are using Oracle 9i it's worth knowing how to use it, so the 9i certification is still worthwhile.

4) And do the certification really worth after they expire.

As with (3). While people use the product, the certification has some value.

Cheers

hi tim ,
actually i just got through the 9i 007 exam .... planin to write the 031 for the oca certification ...
can u just help me on where i can by the materials ....
how'd you think the difficulty level would be, similar to 007 ,because i am planin to write it in 2 weeks before my collg starts of in full flow ... i managed to get through 007 in 10 days study .. want to know if you think i will be able to do it in this also ...
and as you said it ll have value as long as the software is in use ... do you think the software will be in use 5 years from now .... because tats when i would have graduated from collg
... will it still have value then ...
mainly i need the place to get the material can you help ....

Hi.

Your best bet is to buy either the Sybex or Oracle Press study guides:

http://www.oracle-base.com/books/BookDe ... dy%20Guide
http://www.oracle-base.com/books/BookDe ... am%20Guide

As far as rating go, the Sybex book seems to be the winner.
