Hi all,

If i am able to follow through the Practices and the Lab entailed in the Rapid Track course material, would i able to pass the RHCSA (RHEL 7)?

I find out that there are quite a number of commands or materials that are covered in RHEL 6 are not in this Rapid Track course material. Do i need to be concerned about that in regard to passing the RHCSA exam?

Thank in advance any helpful advises.

It's not just about being able to follow along, you need to be comfortable with everything in the rapid track course i.e. able to know what command to use in a given situation

Frankly, if you are not yet already familiar with the environment, I would be skeptical of a "rapid-track" course. It might not be intended for your particular situation. It might gloss-over things, assuming that you already have a certain background, such that if you don't have that background you might not know ... that you don't know.

Again: If you're going to educate yourself, whether you take a class or self-educate, beware that maybe "you don't know what [it is that] you don't know."

The bottom line is that these courses are designed to present you with situations that mimic on-the-job. You are required to correctly assess the situation, come up with a strategy, and resolve a problem and/or accomplish a task. By whatever means, you should practice until you are, indeed, competently able to do that. (Thereafter, "actually getting a piece of paper," or not, is really up-to-you.)

As they say, "so he read a book on swimming ... and then he drowned."
