    Otherwise, I'll post my score on Wednesday.

    I, unlike others, did not find this test particularly easy. I took it after passing the CLEP Info Systems & Computer Apps and DSST Intro to Computing with not much trouble. The biggest distinction is knowing the use of the different types of information systems and information system and software development cycles. I would at least supplement your knowledge of all the areas noted in Librevore's post with Wikipedia.

    Just got back from taking my test. I scored a 61. I found that my background had really prepared me for most of this exam. IC was a great review/refresher for parts of it. I feel that had I gone and taken this exam without reviewing the MIS section on IC that I still would have passed it. But it would have probably been pretty close.

    All I got left is Macro and Microeconomics. Happy days.
