I've seen a number of threads at various stages about whether OCP is of any real practical value. For example some have expressed the point of view that it's a memory test and whilst it's fine to know the theoery practical experience is significant too. I don't know how many OCP's actively take part on this list but it occured to me that with the range of problems being posted here that a possible good validation of OCP, possibly especially for those who "crash coursed" it is to see how many of the problems posted you can answer..... It's kinda easier when they're not your problems ;) Of course the Oracle product is expanding and there are now OCPs for various areas but I think the principle still applies. For the past few weeks, when I've had time, I've been looking a questions posted and trying to see if I can answer them, comparing my attempts with those posted. It's a bit of fun and also a real eyer opener about my lack of knowledge, or misunderstood POV in many cases. Thanks to all who share knowledge on the list!!!

Any OCP's on the list care to share how well they do at answering questions posted and for background whether they "crashed coursed" or got certification there after X years of on the job experience?.

Regards,
Sean :)
