Hey everyone,
I wanted to share something that might help if you are preparing for the 1Z0-1196-25 exam and feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
When I started my prep I treated the 1Z0-1196-25 exam like a memory test. Read documents, memorize features, move on. That approach did not work for long. The questions felt confusing and very scenario driven.
The real change happened when I shifted my mindset.
I stopped asking what the correct answer is.
I started asking what makes sense in a real Oracle Utilities implementation.
Once I did that everything clicked. The 1Z0-1196-25 exam is built around stories. Customer setup service agreements meter data billing flow integration points. If you do not picture the full flow the questions feel tricky.
One thing that helped me practice this mindset was using scenario based practice questions. I personally found 1Z0-1196-25 practice questions from Pass4Future helped me think in exam style situations instead of pure theory. I did not rely on it alone but it helped me understand how Oracle frames questions.
At the same time I used official Oracle documentation and training materials to build the foundation. The official guides explain the why behind the features and the practice questions help you apply that knowledge. That combination worked well for me.
Another small tip. Try explaining topics out loud like you are on a project call. If you can explain customer to meter flow clearly then you are on the right track for the 1Z0-1196-25 exam.
This exam is not about memorizing screens.
It is about thinking like an implementation professional.
Would love to hear from others here.
