Hi Sureshgane,
I used Jason couchman's book 'Oracle 8 DBA Certification
Exam guide' and STS.
Now a dyas, Exam Cram is available for each paper
which is purely Exam Oriented so you will find these
books are very helpful to exam point of view.
You can also visit [url]http://www.education.oracle.com[/url] for
more info on certification and student guide.
HTH,

Ashi,
I have not bought any books till now.But general opinion is that if u want to pass, the exams cram & sts will do.By the by where are u located any where near DC.If u are then we can do combine studies!!!!

not in DC
hi again,
I am in houston (texas), I have purcahsed an Exam cram by Michael ault, but the problem is matter in it is very condensed, will definitely need a reference book or a guide.
STS are very expensive.......will buy them next week.
for now planning to get jason couchmans guide.
so what are you reading now ???
bye
thank you much

I'm in DC - Sureshgane
Sureshgane,
Regarding you suggestion of being in DC area,
I'm in the area, and have Couchman's book. What
resources do you have?

Jason Couchman Book
I happen to read the customer REVIEW of the Oracle DBA certification book by Jason Couchman, from Oracle Press in one of Book stores web site(BOOKPOOL.COM),.....well.....99%percent of the guys have criticised the Book,i have not read or seen the book
........just to let you guys know
thanks

The Jason Couchman's book is not a good one. Though I bought the book I did not read much in it.

I agree with Tamil, Jason Couchman's book is dry, but consists of good theroies. I'm using Exam Cram Series by Coriolis publication, for Pl-Sql, Administration & Backup & recovery. I believe the perfomance tuning guide is not yet released. The authors being, debbie wong, Paul Colins & Michael Ault.

Hello aarganesh,
Also Performance tuning is available. I used it for the Performance tuning exam.
As a preperation for the exams I first read Couchman. Then after that I read the exam cram.
After that I read the online oracle 8 documentation.
During all this I practice a lot.
When feeling confident enough I do the exam.
tycho
