I realize this is a CentOS mailing list but because it is based directly on RHEL, I would assume there are a few individuals who frequent the list that have passed the RHCE exam. I plan on taking the exam this March and was wondering if there are any tips you RHCEs out there could provide that may help me. Thanks!

The first rule of the RHCE test is you do not talk about the RHCE test. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If you haven't booked it yet, try to get the 'rapid track' course with exam, it takes you through the whole system and gets you up to speed on a lot of subjects you might not be using everyday (I do not know what you are doing for a job, but I can imagine that you don't use every aspect of RHEL (or CentOS) on a daily basis). If you are VERY experienced you can try to take the exam without preparation, it is performance based as Red Hat calls it. See http://www.redhat.com/certification/rhce/ for more information and some prep questions. Regards, Michel (RHCE #804006422520400)
