Hi there,
I recently joined a company in Yorkshire (UK) and it looks like they want me to go for OCP 8i DBA. I am certainly up for this. At the moment I have 6 years as a developer and about a year as a DBA so although im coming on, I have lots to learn yet.... can any of you give me some advice on how to approach studying up for the OCP exams?

IE, do I need the CBT's that oracle seem to be trying to sell through the OCP programme, or is it enough to sit and read read read the manuals and practice...

I did some of the downloadable tests and some of the questions are either a) appalingly worded or b) very very obscure.... saying that I still was getting 70%+ :-)
