    Have a look at the following thread in 'How to..' forum:

    http://www.dbasupport.com/forums/sho...threadid=10596

    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)

    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.
