    When I started my OCP preparation in July, 2000, I searched for all the websites I can find to get an idea of how to prepare it. It took me a lot of time to do that which is more than I spent on my preparation for the first exam, believe or not.
    I have passed all two months ago with very good scores(53 and above for each). So I would like to give you guys my way, maybe save you a lot of time and money also.

    The only book you need is The student Kits from Oracle education. Each for one exam, costing $75 for each. You may want to trade or share with somebody esle pursuiting the OCP if your company doesn't reimburse to you.
    You can get it on line from
    [url]http://otn.oracle.com/software/store/store.htm[/url]
    under EDUCATION tab.
    The book name look like
    OAI: Introducation to SQL and PL/SQL ...(for 8i)

    After you finish you book, the only thing you need is self-test sofeware. It costs $79 for each.(expensive, aha?)

    All other info, registration, self test info can be found
    in
    [url]http://education.oracle.com/certification/cp.testinfo.html[/url]


    Those are the only two things you need.

    GOod luck.

    Hi EIF,
    I went online to [url]http://otn.oracle.com/software/store/store.htm[/url] as you directed and was unable to find the EDUCATIONAL tab. Can you please help me get to the site?

    go to [url]http://otn.oracle.com/software/store/store.htm[/url]

    Click 'Enter the oracle store' at the bottom

    ON the new open window, click the database tab, then you will see the software, documentation, oracle press, cd packs, education, support tabs.

    I only find TBTs- no student kits!

    Hi EIF,

    when following your instructions, I am only able to find some TBT titles, not any books, ILT manuals or student kits!

    Please advise!

    Thanks

    Hi EIF,

    I followed your directions and was able to fine TBT titles not ILT materials or student kits.
    Do you still have your ILT materials, if yes can you give it to me at a discount? You can reached me at [email protected]
