I passed 1Z0-031 9i Fundamental I with 80%, and got 9i OCA certification

[Leon Wang]

Today I passed 031 with 80% (48/60). I am happy with that.
My experience is that u need: (1) STS 031 test; (2) Jason's book; (3) Biju's book; (4) 9i DBA handbook.
Also u will meet about 10 questions based on ur experience as DBA. Books are NOT covering those topic.
Good luck for u all !

you could take either 1Z0-001 or 1Z0-007 for OCP 9i.
but originally, 1Z0-001 is for 8i, 1Z0-007 is for 9i, and I think 1Z0-001 shall be more difficult than 1Z0-007.
for detail, go to Oracle web site to download exam guide.

More focus on data file, tablespace, segment and different DD view & usage.

Just a remind, please schedule your 1 of your 9i exam before 1st September this year, then you can excepted to the compulsorily hands-on course. This course is every expensive. US $2000 a 5 days course.
I've finished 1Z0-007 exam early this month.
Good Luck, for those who still haven't take any 9i exam yet. You still have about one week time.

I'm struggling now, try to take 1Z0-007 next week,
maybe all the test center is full, better register now.

You can take the sql exam online. Do not have to go to a test center.

Taking 1Z0-007 is better than taking 1Z0-001 not because of difficulty but price. there is a $35 difference between the two, moreover take 1Z0-007 from your home, cool!
