Components of the RHCE Exam
The RHCE Exam consists of three sections:
Section I: Troubleshooting (2.5 hours)
Section II: Multiple Choice (1.0 hour), and
Section III: Installation and Configuration (2.5 hours)
In order to pass the Red Hat Certified Engineer exam on Red Hat Linux 8.0 you must meet the following requirements: a) an average score of 80 or higher across all three sections, equally weighted; b) no section score lower than 50 points; c) 70 percent or more on the RHCT-level skills and 70 percent or more on the RHCE-level skills in Section III. This last requirement is new, and enables RHCEs to demonstrate that they possess both RHCT-level and RHCE-level skills, as well as enabling a person who only has RHCT level skills to earn RHCT if they pass the required competencies.
Study Points for the RHCE Exam
Red Hat cannot provide a laundry list of minute details about the RHCE exam. Persons who have taken the RHCE Exam have signed a Confidentiality Agreement not to share details about the RHCE Exam. The integrity of the RHCE Exam depends on the integrity of the community of persons who take the Exam.
Experienced Linux system administrators seeking to take the exam without preparing first through Red Hat’s courses may find that the list below is a useful guide to preparation.
