I just took the 1st exam (RDCR200A) and it was harder than I expected. The questions are very fine-grained so it became a test-taking challenge as opposed to knowing how to write a report. I had minimal experience with Crystal prior to the test but spent considerable time reading G. Peck's "Crystal Reports 9: The Definitive Guide". The real tricky part were the questions that said "Check all that apply", those are hard to narrow down.
What would have worked best would have been sample tests, but I am not aware of these being available. Even taking the course seems like it wouldn't have helped all that much, unless they teach the test so you've memorized things like whether an option is on Tab A vs. Tab B (which wouldn't matter a hill of beans if you were writing a report, just check out both tabs).
