How To Pass RHCE Certification Exam

If you want to pass RHCE ( RED HAT CERTIFIED ENGINEER) certification exam, here are some useful tips for you::

1. There are 3 sections in RHCE exam.
a) First is the qualifying exam. If you clear this one, then only you can proceed for next section. If you fail to qualify, you wont get any certificate from Red Hat.
b) If you clear the qualification round, you are qualified for the second section. If you clear the second section too, you will atleast get a RHCT certificate.
NOTE: Even if you fail to clear the qualifying round, please do appear for the rest of the exam. Your won't get any certificate even if you score 100% in next two sections. But atlest you will get an idea about the format of the exam.
c) Those who clear the second round, are then eligible for the third section, and if they clear it, they become RHCE certified.


2. Remember its not an easy exam and if you will make a simple mistake that can fail you. So be very carefull. Its completely a practicle exam, so make a backup copy of every config file that you modify. So that if something goes wrong, you can copy the original file back into the same folder.

3. Books::
The books provided by Red Hat are very good. When you enroll for the examination, you get 3 books from Red Hat.
You can also study

1) TATA McGRAW HILL's " RHCE Linux Study Guide" by Michael Jang

2) SAMS " RHEL 5 Administration Unleashed "

4. Install REDHAT ENTERPRISE LINUX 5.x (RHEL5.x) verison on your system.
You can also install VMWARE software and install a RHEL virtual machine on a Windows Terminal.

5. The only matra to pass this exam is " the more you practice, the more you learn ".

6. There are CBT Nuggets Videos tutorials also availabe. These videos are very helpfull. These videos teach you how to install and configure everything. Sometimes you find it lot more easier to learn from videos,rather than reading it from books. So follow whatever method suites you.

7. When you are appearing for the examination, do take one identification proof of yours like voter ID Card or a Driving license.

8. You are not allowed to take anything else in the examination room. So please do not take you vallet, books, mobile phones etc inside the examination lab.

9. While appearing for the qualifying round, make sure that you read the full instructions carefully. Please go through all the qualifying round questions first and then only start the exam. You are given one hour to solve the qualifying section. One thing very important to note here is that you can ask the examiner to check your machine ID and tell if your all the answers are correct. The examiner checks it from his terminal and informs you if you have any incorrect solution. You can then correct it and ask him again. If all your answers are correct he tells you that you have cleared the qualifying section and asks you to leave the room.




10. You cannot discuss or publish the examination questions otherwise Red Hat can cancel your certificate.
Hope you will find the above tips helpfull and will regularly practice to clear this exam with flying colors. Best of Luck.
