I though the test was hard. Far from impossible, though. I wuold say that
about a third of my class of 15 or so failed it. The class was full of Sun
Solaris admins, and the people that failed were not newbies.

I would never have passed it from the rapid track course I took alone.
Two+ years prior experience with RedHat and Solaris helped me *immensly*.
Prior experience was absolutely necessary, in fact.

And, to top it off, I actually did learn stuff -- useful tidbits that I
put to use on a daily basis.

Good luck...
