    Default Passed Research Methods-IC is more than sufficient

    I can't believe i got an A on this one.I was hoping to barely pass.
    I have posted a new thread for this because i know very few here have prepared for Research methods using IC...because the IC guide came out just recently in December.I want everyone to know that IC is more than sufficient to pass this exam.You will not need anything else.
    I studied for 4 days and used only Instantcert.
    The exam is doable and does not require too much time with IC.
    Thanks Steve
    Only 5 more to go before i complete my Bachelors but i want to take a break.I feel exhausted already

    Smile Great Job Adoncia!!

    I am going to take this ECE test in about 3 weeks myself. You must be a genius having only studied for 4 days? I could probably absorb on;y 2 sections in that amount of time!

    Again, Great Job Adoncia!

    Thanks so much guys,
    Lee you will surely do well.The exam is straightforward testing of terms and there are several scenarios but most are simple.Use all the 3 hours and work slowly one by one.Do try to go thro the entire IC guide once just before the exam.
    Thanks Mail Dog, Actually i usually need more than a week for exams This one I was hoping to barely pass...i was surprised with the A.It's all thanks to IC..the flashcards help you go faster.

    Hi adoncia-
    Great Job on earning an A! Thanks for your post. I will be taking this soon and it's good to know that InstantCert is more than enough to pass.

    Default Took R & M in Psych

    I finally got off my butt and got back into studying. I took some time off after the grueling English Comp class I took. I took this test yesterday morning. I totally agree, a simply great set of cards (Great Job Steve!!!). I will admit they are very hard to study, probably due to the nature of material, but as I took the test I was amazed at how many answers jumped out as I read the questions. To be brief, the test was 160 questions long--keeping focused was difficult on such a long test. I had worked the night prior so I was tired, make sure you are rested. Besides that, know the cards inside and out and you'll be fine. IC is enough for this test, however I did go online and take a bunch of practice tests; see my previous post for the links. I don't know my score, but I actually feel good about this one, anyone reading my previous posts will know I normally am anxious about every test I take. I should find out the score in about 10 days or so. Thanks to all who took this before me and posted their encouragement. One more to go!!! Lee
