How can I say this...

"Don't confuse learning how to pass the performance tuning exam with learning how to make systems faster."

I'll offer you my Dad's advice on this, which he reiterated frequently on our 30-minute drives to and from school:

"There are two answers to every question your teachers will ask you while you're in school. There's the correct answer, and there's the answer that the teacher wants. I expect you to know them both."

Thanks O'mladen one.
No really, thanks , good advice. I am really going hyper about performance
tuning exam. The course is so vast, and the exam so expensive. Honestly how can you test a newbie in performance tuning ? shouldn't it be
a part of ocm ?
Instead of putting that riduculous condition of attending Oracle classes to
give ocp they should see how much experience you have before allowing you to
appear for performance tuning exam. I would be much more prepared for the
exam if I had apprenticed under you for a while. Look at me I haven't even read Cary's book ( wait a minute , neither have
many people on this list , thanks to amazon)
