Please Help, I'm a Little Nervous About Testing

[perrik]

Can you pass using only InstantCert? Probably. I took 9 DSSTs for which IC has flashcards, and feel that I could have made a passing score on each of them using only IC for study.

However, you will feel much more confident taking the exam if you are well prepared! In my opinion the most valuable part of IC membership is the Specific Exam Feedback section of the forum. For each exam, there is a thread where members have posted what topics were covered and to what extent, and what study materials they found the most helpful.

Your study methods depend heavily on your prior knowledge of the subject. I studied intensively for subjects which I didn't know well beforehand, and merely reviewed the materials for subjects I knew reasonably well.

Start by studying for one of your proposed exams - as you go along, you'll figure out what methods and materials are working best. A lot of people have had great success using IC as a study aid (and in some cases as the sole study aid), but others have found it doesn't work for them. The important thing is for you to try different options and find what does work!
