Review of OCP: Oracle8i DBO Study Guide (Hardcover)

I used this book to study for the exam.It was helpful when it came to installing Oracle, other than that, the book was hard to follow because there were so many errors.
Some of the screen shots from the exercises were incorrect.
I would suggest learning SQL, this book does not cover this subject adequately enough for you to pass the test; 16 of my test questions were related to SQL.
Overall, this is not a very good book, I'm surprised Sybex let this one leave the editing room!
If there was a 0 star rating, I would have used it.

Product Description
The perfect book for Oracle and Oracle-partner training classes! Mapped directly to the official exam objectives, with all the enhanced features of the new best-selling Sybex Study Guides, including a self-assessment test, hundreds of sample questions, a bonus sample exam, and an enhanced CD with additional questions.

Review of MCSE Exchange Server 5.5 Study Guide Exam 70-081 (With CD-ROM) (Hardcover)

This study guide not only lets me pass the exchange 5.5 exam, but she provides a very useful information about the exchange 5.5in which I can't find from other MCSE books.I quite enjoy to study the chapter 12 (Managing an exchange Environment) and chapter 16 (Migrating to exchange). Whatever you choose this book for exam or knowledge, that's a good choice.
