                Just finished this a few months ago. My advice is to use the
Oracle Exam
                Guide, Sybex Exam Guides, and Exam Cram as a third choice,
but get the other
                two first.  The ExamCram has much more detail, but does not
explain concepts
                well.  The STS (selftestsoftware.com) practice tests are
really very good.
                I only used one, but it was done very well.  I passed all
tests on the first
                try with an average of about 90%.  The actual tests are MUCH
harder than the
                practice tests in the study guides (any of them).

                Also note, you not only need to study, but also TRY things.
I installed
                Oracle on Linux at home and tinkered to my heart's content.
Make sure you
                understand the DBA and V$ views or you won't pass.

                Best of luck,

                Ed
