RHCHA/RHCE 7 Book

Anyone here take the new Red Hat 7 exams and use this book for reference?
RHCSA & RHCE Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7: Training and Exam Preparation Guide (EX200 and EX300), Third Edition: Asghar Ghori: 9781495148200: Amazon.com: Books
Was looking at another certification to add to the list, and this book looked promising.

Sorry no.
But there does seem to be a distinct lack of RHEL7 based books.
Just use the official course book - It's more than enough for these exams.
Do you have a link for the OP?

Also if you have access to Skillport/Books24x7 its in there catalog there as well.
Does the RHCSA content on linuxacademy.com cover all of the material that one should know for the exam?
I used the site for my LPIC-1 studies and found it to be an excellent resource and I'm very interested in subscribing to the site once more.
It appears to.

Also Michael Jang will relese a new book in november but i hope to finish my exams until then
I agree on Linux Academy as well. Nothing but praise for this website and the content that they are delivering. I'm using it to study for my RHCSA.
Where was this type of content 10 years ago?

I'd second what Jock said, linux academy is an awesome resource, it shouldn't be your only one though. Read related guides from Red Hat and pay attention to the syntax of configuration files. Linux academy labs are great and save a ton of time. So practice as much as you can.
I assume you're talking about the Linux Bible, I don't own it either I've been using a free subscription to a LMS. I have gone through the entire book and learned a lot from it as it does cover a significant portion of the topics for both RHCSA/RHCE exams but there are a few it did miss as I think it may have been sent to publishing too soon. Overall it was worth taking the time to read through it and pick up some tricks along the way.
For the portions that weren't covered, I'm going through the rough cut of Sander Van Gut's Red Hat RHCSA/RHCE 7 Cert Guide. So far I have to say his book is trumping the Linux Bible is terms of content.
" Embrace, evolve, extinguish "
I used the rough cut for my RHCSA studies and I would rate it as "OK" since it had a lot of typos. However, the actual published book is probably better than the rough cut.
Tangent: His RHCSA videos (also available on safari books) were much better because you could tell he put a lot of effort into them. The RHCE video course is another story...and not as forgiving; it's like he got kind of annoyed/tired of sitting in front of a camera all day which leads to just a text summary of exercises instead of him working them out as in the RHCSA videos.
