I'm pretty happy that this one is over, I scored an A just studying from the IC cards and the sample questions from EC.
There were only a couple of things in the test that I was not familiar with, including large N and small N, how to cite somebody else's work in the reference section of a report, and maybe one or two more things, but nothing big. IC has it covered pretty well.
One thing I have to say, and I have read it from other posters, taking an EC test late in the afternoon (mine was at 4:30 pm) is pretty hard. By the time I had about 20 questions left, my head was pretty foggy. The Pearson Vue center was packed and it was really hard to get an appointment, so I went with what they had. If you have a choice, I recommend taking it as early as possible.
Next will be Adulthood and Aging or Social Psych. I have 15 more ULs to go.
Thanks everybody.

I concur with you on the late afternoon thing. I test at military centers, and they too are crowded with the after lunch folks. I have consistently tested better in the morning.
Good call.
