RE: Are Oracle courses required for Oracle Certification now?

Hang on to those sheets! Mine were stamped "Do Not Lose This Report." After I finished all of my tests, I waited and waited for my certification in the mail. I finally called Oracle Education. They didn't have 2 of my tests on record. I had to fax my copies of the reports to them!

Are you getting a sheet after each exam showing how many you got correct for each section and your overall score? I received that sheet at the testing center after each exam. Other than that, you won't get anything from Oracle until you finish your final exam. It took me about a month to get my packet.
