My advice is to use the Oracle Exam Guide, Sybex Exam Guides, and Exam Cram as a third choice, but get the other two first. The ExamCram has much more detail, but does not explain concepts well. The STS (selftestsoftware.com) practice tests are really very good. I only used one, but it was done very well. I passed all tests on the first try with an average of about 90%. The actual tests are MUCH harder than the practice tests in the study guides (any of them). Also note, you not only need to study, but also TRY things. I installed Oracle on Linux at home and tinkered to my heart's content. Make sure you understand the DBA and V$ views or you won't pass.
