Scoring High on IC Flash Cards w/o Study. Take first test? - parabolate - 01-15-2009

So I'm shooting for a total of about 13 CLEP tests. I've never taken one before so I am sure I will have the first time jitters, and I want to start with something easy to help me gain confidence and get a feel for the testing environment.

For this reason, I was looking at the Management of Technology as I am most familiar with this info allready. After going to the flash cards for the subject on the Instant Cert site I was surprised at how easy the questions were.

I got about 80% right on my first run through the cards w/o previous study and about 95% right on a second run through the cards.

Do I need to study any supplemental material for this test or is IC sufficient?

Want some feedback before I jump in the deep end and sit the first test to start this process.

Just seems way too easy....:confused:

IC may be all you need for this one. Obviously the easiest exams are going to be the ones in subject areas you have education/experience with. Sounds like your off to a great start!

Best of luck to you.

Prior to studying or registering for IC I thought they were all going to be pretty challenging. Just dont wanna go in on try #1 too over confident with the material be hit with unfamiliar info.

Sounds good to me, maybe look at the specific feedback section and make sure you know that material.
