What's the issue here? I can forward your feedback to guys who are in
charge of this certification (and sample questions).

I often give tech lecture for engineers who are interested in studying
PostgreSQL and taking the OSS-DB Gold Exam/Cert (advanced one).

If you have any question and/or feedback, I'm happy to forward it
to improve this exam.

BTW, I'd like to share with you that this exam is based on
PostgreSQL 9.0 now, and I don't know when it will be updated.
