I was just wondering if anyone out there could give me some advice whether to use instantcert. Is it worth my time/money? If you have used it recently, which clep did you pass? Any info. would really help? Thanks

I have used instantcert for every test I have taken, passed everyone with a 60 or higher. It is definitely worth the money!

Any info. would really help? Thanks You betcha. It is an excellent way to prepare for tests. I have used IC for US History I, US History II, and English Composition with Essay. (I don't have the score for the last test yet...) It was particularly helpful in the history exams. I feel that IC fills in all inadequacies that any other study source may have (REA, Peterson's, a college text, etc.), though I am unsure I would feel comfortable using it on its own.

IC is worth way more than the $20/month fee. I started using it for the last few exams I've taken and couldn't be happier. I had basically zero knowledge of the subjects and in one or two weeks of studying IC, I was able to pass the exams with fairly high scores.

I passed Intro to Ed Psych with a 73 yesterday. IC helped save me a lot of time because I tend to get nervous & over study. You don't need an in depth understanding of every clep/dsst subject but you need to know what to focus on. That's where IC and REA or a supplemental study guide can help.
For a tecep I took there weren't any flashcards but the exam specific subscriber thread had some tips.
