Eman,
I have the DBA set of TBT's. So far I have managed to almost complete the
SQL, PL/SQL portion. I have found the information provided to be fairly
thorough thus far. My only complaint is with the progress tests that
accompany each set of lessons. The answers that you provide must exactly
match what the program expects to see or it counts it as an error. If you
enter column names in the wrong order for a SELECT statement, it's an error
- even though your answer will work in the real world. I find that you have
to read the instructions VERY CAREFULLY. There are several other anomalies
that I have encountered but cannot remember at the moment. There is at
least one question that CANNOT be answered correctly, no matter what you do
and there are a couple of places where the first question in the test does
not allow you to enter an answer - won't allow you to type but if you click
on the window, it becomes an error.
So far, I consider these to be a minor inconvenience, though a bit
frustrating at times. I've learned quite a bit from the lessons so will
continue to press on.
Oh, one other thing. The OCP test certificates that come with the set are
only good for one year - not sure if there is a way to get the deadline
extended or not. My schedule is not going to allow me to complete
everything on one year's time, so I guess I'll be looking into that in the
future.
Hope this helps.
