Its nice....We have the same interest.
I want advice regarding the rhce exam-
Do you think any one can take the rhce exam privately without going to any course and pass it?

RHCE is the first REAL TIME certification , so u need LAB practice

Good coaching center would be the best option

Try to learn the CCNA first !

I think you should first do a CCNA certification. It is very valuable for network admins. So get a good institute providing live training with cisco labs. Remember, live training will cst much more than normal teaching. So choose good institutes for your training.

Hello Warlock
This is venkat0052 Better you can do your ccna and then do your mcse and rhce thats it you can be a network admin. Remember if you want to get selected in your college campus do not keep arrears from 2nd year and try to complete all arears of 1st year as soon as possible

HI vivek
Yes you are right computer field is very broad field which has many postings and many obstacles in it and there are fields such as
1.software line,
2.Hardware & networkinng

In software field you can be a programmer in
c,c++,java,html,web page designer,etc
In hardware &networking you can be a ethical hacker,system admin,security assistant,etc
for your field that is for security you should learn some certifications like MCSE,CCNA,RHCE,Ethical hacking etc
