    I think it really depends on the exam. For some exams, yes...IC is certainly enough. For others, no it is not. Western Civ II.........that's a tough one. Simply put, I don't think it's enough for this exam, although...I would recommend Sparknotes.com, Wikipedia.
    Here's another link that seems to be pretty credible:

    Internet Modern History Sourcebook: Main Page

    I hope this helps.

    While I have not taken it, from all the posts, it does look like a very challenging exam. In the exam feedback section, there are four different posts from people who have taken it; please follow this link: http://www.instantcertonline.com/for...sent-clep.html

    If I were you I would postpone the test until I studied thoroughly from the suggestions in these posts, took some practice tests, and had more confidence in my preparation.

    Please use the search function, I know there have been many different discussions concerning this test over the last year; they are sure to add more information. Good luck and let us know what you decide to do. Lee
