Questions
Which syllabus does this Database Management Systems Lab course follow?
It follows the AKTU (Lucknow) MCA syllabus for Semester 2. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university's syllabus and unit order.
What happens in the lab exam?
You perform one or two experiments given by the examiner, show the output, submit the lab record and answer viva questions.
Oracle or MySQL?
The centre uses the database your college uses. SQL is mostly the same; PL-SQL experiments are done on Oracle (or MySQL stored procedures).
