However, I passed all the exams with only one book at my disposal:

Oracle 8i DBA Certification Exam Guide by Couchman and Schwinn.
If you are in India, its available for about Rs 450/-0nly (Tata McGraw Hill)

Thanks for your help.

Hi Raminder,
how much time should be suitable for the preparation .I have worked in sql,pl/sql ,have a exposore of oracle architecture , backup & recovery, done sql tuning ,but not any other type of tuning.
Thanks in advance

If you are doing nothing else, and you have prior exposure as you say, one week thorough preparation per exam should be sufficient to pass.
I may add that it depends upon individual and circumstances. If you are working or have family committments, you can add time accordingly.
