So long...final thoughts
#1
Well I'm finished. Took my last ECE test the other day and should have degree conferred in a couple of weeks.

I found this sight to be an excellent resource and would recommend it to anyone. Used it pretty much exclusively for test prep and did quite well. A quick synopsis:

DSST Civil War: Used IC and watched Burns film twice. Got an A (63)
DSST Rise Fall USSR: IC and Rudman book. A (61)
DSST Drug/ alcohol abuse. IC ONLY. A (61)

ECE Ab Psychology. IC ONLY. B
ECE Gerontology. IC ONLY. C
ECE Adulthood and Aging. IC ONLY. A

ECE IL required course. studied the online modules for about 4 hours total. Took the practice quizzes a couple of times then scored an 86 on the final.

Studied EXTENSIVELY for the DSST tests. Found them quite difficult but the results were happy.

Studied ONLY IC on the ECE tests and found them difficult, but manageable. IC was all that was needed for these tests. Probably wouldn't recomment an IC only strategy for the DSST history tests. IC is more than adequate for DSST drug/ alcohol.

Anyway. Hope this is helpful for anyone thats just starting. Good luck all!

Thank you for the feedback on IC and the ECE exams also. I need great grades on several ECEs, including 2 of the ones you mentioned, so I'll keep supplementing IC.
