What I specifically need is insight on the difficulty of these tests and which test might be the best one to start with as Iembark on switching over from clep to dantes. I don't know what to expect with dantes..which format is generally harder?
I can't say how good preparation InstantCert is for the Soviet Union DANTES, but the test is doable. I passed it using a library study guide, went through it once, and passed pretty well. I'm sure InstantCert will prepare you well, though.
Drug and Alcohol Abuse will be cake using only InstantCert. I'd try to get through it two or three times, especially all the brain-chemical relationship type parts (which was a bit much for me)... but it'll be easy even if you only use InstantCert.
Civil War was rough. I didn't study enough the first time and failed by 1 point. I just retook it, and I think I allowed enough time to study -- just make sure you understand the commanders, battles, that type of thing. Maybe supplement your studies here with looking on the Wikipedia and checking out the major battles. It'll come in handy.
BTW, I am not being paid by InstantCert, I'm just a very satisfied customer... a "Raving Fan", if you read those corporate-type books
