Common Questions About the RedHat EX300 Exam

What is the RedHat Red Hat Certified Engineer - RHCE (v6+v7) exam all about?

The EX300 exam is the official Red Hat exam behind the Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) certification, validating the skills measured by the RedHat Red Hat Certified Engineer - RHCE (v6+v7) credential. It sits at the Professional level of the Red Hat certification program. It also connects to Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA) EX200, so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.

How many questions are on the EX300 exam, and how much time do I get?

The EX300 exam contains Performance-based tasks, no fixed number questions to be completed within 210 minutes. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count to work out a comfortable per-question pace, and mark any item that eats into it so you can return later instead of getting stuck. Timed sessions in the Getcertkey test engines make that pacing automatic — run at least two full-length mock exams under the clock so time pressure never becomes the reason you drop points.
