EXISTS predicate tests the existence of specified rows of a subquery. In general, EXISTS can be used to replace comparisons with IN and NOT EXISTS can be used to replace comparisons with NOT IN. However, the reverse is not true. Some problems can be solved only by using EXISTS and/or NOT EXISTS predicate. For an example, see For ALL.
