> Hi, I took the MySQL core and professional certification exams and failed both, so now I want to go again, but does anyone have any tips or techniques for studying that they've found useful? > Wow, what a drag.
Did you read the study guide? How long have you been a MySQL user? I am preparing to take the professional exam and have been reading the study guide. I find it to be very useful and informative in that it lets you know what percentage each topic will be covered in the exam. I also started reading the entire online manual. I skim through a lot of it and spend the most time on the areas that either interest me or are unclear. I have been a MySQL user since 1998. Most my experience was installation/administration for a web hosting provider until around 2001 at which time I began using it for my own projects. It's really only been the last year or two that I started feeling any kind of confidence with MySQL. Although I have not taken the exam, I am feeling pretty confident that I can pass after reading the online manual and the study guide from front to (almost) back. I hope I'm right about that feeling! Wish me luck :-) Best of luck to you, too. Jim Grill -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
