Reduce Your Test Stress,
By Jeff Iverson (Fridley, MN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oracle8i DBA: SQL and PL/SQL Exam Cram (Exam: 1Z0-001) (Paperback)
Preparing for any exam is prone to cause a certain amount of anxiety, but with this book one should feel completely at ease going into the test. The book does a marvelous job covering the basics of SQL statements. Some of the hints and tips stray close to being obvious, but do not detract from the book overall. Some of the practice questions are almost too easy, but it's a good warmup to the real thing. This is a very complete, and ultimately useful book.

Don't rely on this text,
By Afshan Magre (Kenya) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oracle8i DBA: SQL and PL/SQL Exam Cram (Exam: 1Z0-001) (Paperback)
Don't rely on this text if you want to pass the exam. The book is difficult to read, and the writer has a tendency to deviate towards performance and architecture issues which are not required for the exam and are likely to waste your time. On a more positive note, it presents some of the basic rules that will be tested on the exam in a concise way and has some very good practice questions. To pass the first exam, I used it to complement the Sybex OCP series, and this worked for me.
