As I consider the MCDBA cert, which is the ways to compelete that? Which are
most effective (learning and cost)?

1. Buy the book, practice a lot, and write the exam...
2. Is there online exams?
3. Instructor lead?

I just want to learn the material and ace the exam - and I can take the time
practice this stuff.

You're best bet is to get a book/study guide, download the SQL
evaluation (or it may come with a book) and practice, a lot.This is
cheapest, as well. I recently took the 228 exam, and passed, but it was
tough, in a way.

I'm using it as an elective for my MCSE, so I get two certs in one, so
I've already passed 20-216 and 70-215. If you take these two exams as
your MCDBA elective, you've already covered half the exam, as there's a
lot of permissions questions and several on arrays/raid, which these
exams cover.

Since you didn't ask what exams you needed to take, I'm presuming you've
already looked into all that and this is a valid question.

This to me is kind of like asking 'which hand do I use more'.

Historically, how did YOU feel you learned best? Go from there.

I personally do book work and a little practical hands on. One of my
classmates cannot STAND book study. It's all relative.

Very, very, very good point. I am a book learner all the way.
