Really this is what ANY Certification says, that "you have the bare minimum for this level of certification"
I've really gone off any sort of vendor-specific certification. I never tried for the RHCE because of the cost, but if I had paid out the money and put in the work and got it I would have been fairly p****d off now. The majority of people I deal with who had RedHat 9 servers are in the midst of converting them to Debian or Suse. I don't know anyone who's changing to RHEL. So a redhat certification is not worth so much anymore.
From now on I'm only interested in vendor-neutral certifications. Anyone know of a good one?
I know some folks who are moving to RHEL from older versions of linux and are considering it instead of commercial unices.
I have both Solaris and RHCE certs. I like them because I'm self taught. The certs let me know I've gotten a fairly well rounded education along the way. The RHCE challenges me each time I see something I think I should know better and keeps me driven to maintain my skills.
Also looks nice on the business card when you go job-searching. :)
