Creating tablespaces is one of the most basic thing a DBA must know. If you need to create any in the exam, do not memorialize the syntax. Go to the DOC, get an example and adapt as needed. You can also use the DBMS_METADATA to get the DDL of any existent tablespace to use as a template.
You must clearly know the difference/advantages/disadvantages/consequences/requirements between:
- BIG / SMALL file tablespaces.
- DMT / LMT - Convert between them.
- MSSM / ASSM.
You must also be able to create very fast a new tablespace via sqlplus or EM interface.

I think it is worth mentioning TRANSPORTABLE TABLESPACES which you will find at the end section of:
Oracle Database Administrator’s Guide -> Managing Tablespaces
