I used to teach it, if that helps.
The course is very intense in terms of content, covering the majority of
the previous 2 courses in 4 days - local systems administration,
installation, user management etc etc, plus a lot of network services,
including DNS, apache httpd, smb, ftp etc.
If you think you know >= 80/90% of the content then this is an
appropriate course for you.
If there are huge holes in your knowledge, it isn't :)

There is a course and curriculum overview on the Red Hat training website.

There are no official practice tests or exam guides beyond the above.
