[Kiwi Lover]

Excellent job

You did great cuase Excelsior adviser told me 52 and up is A, so you nail it.

Thank you for your feed back, can you tell me what did you use to prepare for test. How abut IC, how close was it to test, I have heard Peterson is harder than real test is this true?

Hi Ray,

An "A", huh? Very cool!! Made all that studying worth it...

Yes, the Peterson's test is definitely harder than the real test, but it was GREAT preparation, so I would still use it.

Since I knew absolutely NOTHING about Macroecon, I initially watched the Standard Deviant's Macroeconomics video which gave me a good overview (I also took notes while I watched it, which proved very helpful also). I would be happy to send you the video if you'd like, as long as you promise to "pay it forward" and offer it to someone else down the line.

After watching the video, I studied with InstantCert, and also studied using SparkCharts, which I can e-mail to you if you'd like (I received it from another InstantCert member). Also, if you go into http://www.sparknotes.com/economics, they have good info there as well.

To answer your question, it's not that InstantCert is "close to the test", but it gives you a lot of good info that you need to know for the test. Like Steve has posted here before, you want to study the material that is listed below the question (once you've hit enter). Focus on that material especially to learn about the subject you're testing on.

And give yourself plenty of time to absorb it all; I found that reviewing it and reviewing it really helped, until I "had it" and felt confident enough to take the test.

Hope that helps!
