Help on GREM certification

Hallo group,

it is great to be here. This is my first mail to the group. So i wont
write much. Anyways, i want to do a certification on GREM. I went
through SANS site. And they are only providing the Course fees and some
extra things which are of no use.

Basically i want to know about the course content of the exam and the
pattern of the test apart from being an online test.
In order to know about the question pattern of the test i wanted to
check some test papers apart from the ones being sold on the SANS site.
As i am from a remote place in India, i want to know if it is necessary
to attend any of the workshops on grem bring organized by sans to get
the certificate.

Any guidence is greatly appreciated...

Regards
Smruti
