If your user account has autotrace configured by the DBA, you can use the "SET AUTOTRACE ON EXPLAIN" command to turn on execution path reports on query statements. The tutorial exercise bellow shows you a good example:

SQL> CONNECT HR/retneciyf

SQL> SET AUTOTRACE ON EXPLAIN

SQL> SELECT E.LAST_NAME, E.SALARY, J.JOB_TITLE
  2  FROM EMPLOYEES E, JOBS J
  3  WHERE E.JOB_ID=J.JOB_ID AND E.SALARY>12000;

LAST_NAME             SALARY JOB_TITLE
----------------- ---------- -----------------------------
King                   24000 President
Kochhar                17000 Administration Vice President
De Haan                17000 Administration Vice President
