I've looked over previous posts about the Macroeconomics CLEP and I read mixed opinions about it's difficulty.
For those who found it difficult, was it because the content was a surprise, or because it is math oriented, or something else?
For those that did well on the test what did you attribute that to?
Were there questions where you had to read graphs? Did you have to know the abbrevations, like AD, SAS, etc... ?
Right now I am starting off with InstantCert and I plan on looking at some of the other sites that were recommended in this forum. But as I'm reading the IC flashcards I feel like a lot of the material and concepts are new to me and the info keeps popping out of my brain. Has anyone had this feeling with economics and did you eventually grab ahold of the concepts presented in the IC cards?
I know that these are a lot of questions, but I would be grateful for any help.
