The RHCT/RHCE exams are not written, they are performance-based.  The best 
guide to study from is the one provided by Red Hat located at 
<https://www.redhat.com/certification/rhce/prep_guide/>

As a previous reply mentioned, there are two (2) factors in the Red
Hat certification process. The first is the written examination. The
second part is a hands on test, to administer a box. Many people who
do very well on the written examination, fail the hands on test. Learn
how to do that, very well, before you take the certification tests. GL

When I first took the RHCE on RHL 7.1 (2001) there was a written exam 
section and two hands-on sections.  When I updated my RHCE on RHEL 4 
(2005) there were two hands-on sections.  According to the RHCT/RHCE prep 
guide <http://www.redhat.com/certification/rhce/prep_guide/> the RHCE 
guidelines are as follows:

For RHCE exams given on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and higher, the exam is 
organized as follows:

     * Troubleshooting and System Maintenance  2.5 hours
     * Installation and Configuration  3.0 hours

Where do you find information stating that there is a written section to 
the exam?

yes you are right. when i took my RHCE exam the last august there were 
two hands-on tests but no written test. If one does not score 80+ in the 
second part of the first half, then he will not be qualified as RHCE 
even if he scores 100 in the rhce section of the second half.
