Good day all



I hope that someone can help me out with some resources.



Due to lack of interest my MySQL training was cancelled in
December.



However I need to get certified (MySQL DBA) ASAP and need to
do this on book knowledge and a bit of experience alone.



Due to the cost for the exams I cannot afford to fail any
one of the two exams.





I am trying to get hold of sample exams, etc... that I can
use for preparation to the exams in order to test myself and make sure that
I have all the knowledge I need.





Does anybody know where I can look for these?





Regards

Machiel

I have passed all the 5.0 dev and dba exams as well as 5.1 cluster.
Buy the official guides and read them well:

http://www.amazon.com/MySQL-5-0-Certification-Study-Guide/dp /0672328127

That has all the information you need and practice exam questions. The
certification exams are not that hard if you work with MySQL
consistently and read through the guide.

Re: Mysql Certification exams

Hi Machiel,



First of all, obligatory disclaimer: Until 2007, I was in charge of the

MySQL certification exams. I'm also co-author of the book I'm about to

recommend, but I receive no sales royalties. All of which means that I'm

biased and my knowledge may be a bit rusty, but hopefully still useful :-)



The best resource for self-study ought to be the MySQL 5 Certification

Study Guide,

http://www.amazon.com/MySQL-5-0-Certification-Study-Guide/dp /0672328127/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1262596558&sr=8-1



The book has received very favorable feedback from those doing

self-studying for the certification exams. Along with the book you get a

number of self-study questions to help you check whether you have

understood the material. The questions are open-ended/discussion questions,

not multiple-choice like on the exams.



Also make sure to read the candidate guide on the mysql web site before

you go to the exam. It has a lot of valuable hints.



Best of luck on the exam!



/ Carsten

Hi Machiel,

1) the best resource for the exam is/was the Cerification Study Guide and it
is all you need to pass the exam but....
2) the exam changed recently (no more from Vue) so that the Guide could be
useless

I am not telling you that being certified this way makes sense only for some
corporate needs or personal CV needs (apart from telling friends at the bar)
and when you will be at night with a broken replication your certification
will not help you.
But I am sure you know it already!

Cheers

Claudio
