I'm RHCE-certified for RHEL3, got it in '04.  I took the one-week course;
four days of refresher and one day of testing.  Even though I'm primarily a
Solaris person that just dabbled in RH before then, I managed to pass with
a 97%.

more difficult, but I'm still planning on upgrading my certification this
year.
