Okay, I'm not going to lie...I may be freaking out about this test. This will be my 4th test in the 12 months. Substance Abuse and HTYH - I passed with flying colors. Last month, I took Race to Save the Planet and I passed by one point! Now, I'm scheduled to take Astronomy. I haven't found much feedback about this test. Is it harder than Race to Save the Planet? I just found out that my testing date has been changed from 01.29.11 to 01.21.11. I haven't started studying yet. I'm just wondering if I should take it next month or not. I really don't want to because I start school again on 01.31.11. In the past, I've used the Instant Cert flashcards and I've been fine. Maybe I'm just rambling and freaking out for no reason? I would appreciate any feedback. Thank you everyone!

If you still have a subscription, go to the Specific Feedback section. You're probably OK with the flash cards alone- I passed this exam without studying at all.

I had no astronomy background and would not have been able to pass using flashcards alone. I found reading about this subject very difficult so I watched an Astronomy course through iTunesU. I think the college was Missouri State, I forget the professor's name. You probably don't have time to watch it all, but I would definitely try to see as many as possible. I am not scientifically inclined so I needed a lot more than the cards. Even with a study guide from someone here, I couldn't make heads or tails out of what I was reading without context.
