Yeah, I actually didn't study for the last exam I took at all. I felt
guilty but what can you do?

Dennis,
I just finished the 8i upgrade (and passed it) and am now studying for the 9i upgrade.
It is frustrating to study and learn stuff that you will never use - but need to know to pass the test.
But so far, my experience has been that I worry too much about passing (so I study more than I probably need to). But, it's working for me, so I guess I'm doing it right!
keep on truckin!

Thanks Scott. I decided to take the 8i path because the study materials were more readily available, so after I complete the remaining modules, I will need to turn around and do the 9i upgrade. Probably complete it just in time to do the 10i upgrade. :-)
So far, I've taken:
Everybody tells me the Admin exam isn't very bad for experienced DBAs. I'm considering a quick brush-up and take that one before summer. That would leave me with networking and everybody says that is hard because most of us have little network background.
My experience with the 9i Upgrade is that the material isn't difficult, but there is just a LOT of material to master. After all, Oracle wants to ensure everyone knows all the new features.
I don't know if it is just me, but it seems hard to work and come up with time to study. But I'm not hoping for a change in THAT circumstance!! ;-)

Yeah Dennis, Congratulations!!! Which exam did you just pass? I need to start looking into studying for the 9i upgrade exam soon.
