Another issue is that most jobs do NOT allow you or force you to deal with all aspects of Oracle. For instance, if you are a one-db shop, you probably don't get a lot of practice with replication. If you are a non-NT shop, you probably don't get a lot of practice with crash recovery. (Sorry, couldn't resist. :-))
Some of the stuff on the test *has* to be studied for, or you'll simply come up blank. And let's face it, if everyone was an expert at all aspects of Oracle, this'd be a much lonelier list.
