After reading the whole book I can say this is a great study guide for Oracle8i and for the certification too. There are some erros on the book (Sintax Erros), but anyway the book helped me to get certified so I will give 5 stars intead of 4. The book doesn't explain why the things are that way (as Oracle Press books do), just explain that are that way. The questions that are on the book after each chapter are extremely easy comparing to the certification exams. The Oracle sample questions are also easy comparing to the certification, but the ocp.exe exam that is on the book's CD is at the same level or the certification. If you know everything on the book, and did all the questions and sample questions, I think you are ready to pass on the Certification Exam.Product Description
