> Congratulations. Thanks
>Do you feel you learned anything from this exam? My initial answer was : If there is one thing that I have learnt from this exam , its that "studying for an exam is different from studying". This principle doesn't seem to apply so much to "backup and recovery" , "adminstration fundamentals" ,etc. However now that I have had a day to think about your question I have the following to say. I have spent all this time ( while I was preparing for this exam) complaining and being nervous. I was wrong to complain. Its only when we have a deadline to meet that we sit down and devote time to something. If nothing else this exam made me sit down and give time to studying and learning. I am glad that this exam is a part of ocp. Because of this exam I came into contact with so many wonderful new things and concepts. Granted that the very fact that I had a deadline to meet meant that I only learnt their names and did not get to know them well but I learnt that the rabbit hole really goes deep . This exam has taught me to respect performance tuning. If i did not have to give this exam , I would have remained oblivious to my ignorance. Now I feel more humble and at the same time eager to learn. Thanks list, I am lucky to learn from you all. > > > > Dennis Williams > DBA, 80%OCP, 100% DBA > Lifetouch, Inc. > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > -----Original Message----- > > List , thanks to you all I passed my oracle 9i performance tuning exam today > with good marks. > Thank you > > -- > Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net > -- > Author: DENNIS WILLIAMS > INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com > San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message > to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in > the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L > (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
