I know this has been discussed before, but I wanted to see what the general concensus was on the easiest exams. I have taken Personal Finance and Analyzing and Interpreting Literature. I have to take US History I & II in December. After that, I have 5 more exams I need to complete (upper or lower credit) for electives, so it doesn't matter what they are. I am leaning towards taking all of them in the Business Arena as I have a pretty strong business and IT background.
That being said, this is what I am planning to take:
1. DSST - Human Resource Management
2. DSST - Introduction To Business
3. DSST - Organizational Behavior
4. DSST - Here's to Your Health (just because I heard it was easy)
5. CLEP - Principles of Management
I would appreciate any advice. I cannot take any MIS or Computing type class as I have transferred in these credits and I have verified with my school that they will conflict.
Thanks in advance...

I have received an A on the following using IC alone:
Drug and Alcohol Abuse 60
Heres to Your Health 64
Criminal Justice 60
Fundamentals of Counseling 63
MIS 63
Principles of Management (Easiest of all 70)
I have read that Principles of Supervision should be an esay A with IC alone as well. Lets try to only add exams to this post that you received an A on using IC by itself.

Hi B2,
Your plan looks very good to me. If you study IC well, I can't imagine you having much trouble with any of those exams.
Don't take any of them for granted, of course!
hilarious
Best of luck,

Appreciate it Snazz...I compiled the list from several searches I did to see what everyone thought was easiest (within Business)...I have been using IC and typically one other resource i.e. Rea, Comex, CLEP Study Guide, and DSST Study Guide. Hopefully these will be enough. Once I finish these 5 exams, I'll only have to worry about my traditional classes in my major.
Thanks for the input!!!

That's what I did too. Even for those exams that I expected to be "easy", I still made sure I used supplemental resources in addition to IC.
IC alone is good for a basic 'pass' on many exams, but if you want a guaranteed 'A' it is worth doing a bit of extra study.
Wikipedia is awesome for looking stuff up, and you can usually find online study notes that help to solidify what you are learning too.
You're going to do great,
