Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: A question from OCA exam
Last time I looked, there was quite a bit of information on the SelfTest
software website about their test item construction. I once was a Navy
instructor and worked on test banks: back then we spent a good bit of
effort not to produce an English test and "trick" questions were not
used. Self Test Software seems to have exactly the opposite attitude
about it. When these type of items are included, considering how many
people taking these tests are not native English speakers as well, leads
me to believe they are not fair and don't actually test mastery of the
material.

Wouldn't it be interesting if the exam tested something important rather than ambiguous terminology?
I hate exams that throw in questions that mean nothing just to try and catch someone on a vague recollection of something that they might have heard in a class.

I believe that "server side procedures" is a term related to the use of rman scripts therefore A would be the answer. Answer B would be correct for stored procedures.

Hmmm... As the term is "Server side procedures" and not "Database Stored Procedures", I would rule out B,C & D - but I might have a twisted perception of these questions.... ;)
DBAs know "stored procedures" -- the source code is visible in USER/ALL/DBA_SOURCE to those who have EXECUTE permision on the procedure.
