Apparently you're not taking yours. Equating 'exam cram' tactics to actual study is ludicrous, and doesn't result in any benefit except to pass the exam; real benefits, such as actually knowing and understanding the material, are missing. Were the people taking such exams learning the material rather than having it spoon-fed to them in small, digestible bites, and only enough to actually answer the test questions I would possibly have a differing opinion. The sordid truth is many organizations offering such 'training' are doing just as I describe, charging exhorbitant fees for the privilege, and turning loose on the Oracle community candidates who are less than qualified but who can pass the exams. You cannot, in any reasonable frame of reference, call that 'learning'.

Unless you did the same thing ...
