  • Reminds me of a question I once saw on a non-MS exam...

    Which of the following Recovery Models will allow for minimally logged index rebuilds?

    A. Bulk Logged

    B. Bulk-Logged

    C. Bulk_Logged

    D. BulkLogged

    😛

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

    They must want someone who knows things by the book instead of someone someone who knows the technology by using it. :sick:

    The answer to that question is, obviously: "Yes".

    That's why I have a huge problem with certification exams. They don't require one to UNDERSTAND the problem but merely to be able to repeat what the documentation states.

    I knew a guy once who was a 4.0 student in accounting. I, on the other hand, took no accounting classes whatsoever yet I understood the basics of the debit/credit issue better than he did. He aced the exams because of his eidetic (photographic) memory and could regurgitate what the books stated quite well but he didn't understand the subject.

    I am quite the opposite in that I usually don't do well on exams because I don't recall specific details exactly whereas I do much better on application. I had a college professor tell me once that if you use something often enough you'll remember it and if not you can always look it up but you still have to understand how to apply that information to the problem to achieve the solution.

    Except for the MCM certification, I have to say that's pretty much the feelings I have for certs.
