One question to all the senior members

How do you solve the queries so well, is it because you have experience or what ? Asking this question because i browse ORAFAQ heavily but when i read the questions then my mind will be blocked for sometime and i am not able to contribute to any of the questions.. ill throw my oca certificate in the river Sad

One final word..Please tell me how to improve on SQL PLSQL and to understand the questions, so that i can contribute too..

It is one of me!
Whether it is useful, depends on your employer.
If you are permanently employed by an Oracle user, then the qualifications are not immediately valuable: your employer will know whether you can do your job.
If you work for a consulting company (as I do) then qualifications are essential: firstly, because many companies, governments, and NGOs will not award contracts to consulting companies that do not have qualified staff; and secondly, because they can justify a higher charge rate for OCMs than OCPs.
On a personal level, you should do everything exam you can: firstly, they are fun; secondly, they force you to study; thirdly, you never know when you might have to change job. Many employers will never recruit a DBA who is not qualified: they don't have time to read hundreds of job applications, so all the unqualified applicants go in the bin.
