First of all everybody should note that PL/SQL is not been tested in this exam (9i SQL). If you guys compare the test content checklist between 1Z1-007 Introduction to Oracle9i:SQL and 1Z0-001 Introduction to oracle SQL & PL/SQL.... PL/SQL is not there for the 9i exam.

So, if you are through with SQL you can take this exam & this is a real exam you can take it at your work/home at your convenience.

Also as a devil's advocate, what's wrong with this concept. you are taking the exam for the same time but un-supervised. If you are going to cheat, its the cheater who can't progress in the next exam (DBA Fundamentals I). Ofcourse can't do his job @ his/her workplace if he dont learn the concepts. I dont think the OCP program is downgraded by doing this.

So Good luck guys !!!
