My best advice is to use the specific exam feedback area and flashcards here and ECE practice exam. The practice exam is well worth the $65 as it will let you know what the actual exam will look like and the types of questions you will see. Make sure you do both practice exams and that you review the right and wrong answers. These can really help clarify the tough material. It really isn't that bad of an exam. I would also recommend looking at the human growth and development cards here as well. Good luck!

After taking two of the practice exams, I have encountered many phrases/theories/topics that on not on V2 of the flashcards since the ECE changes of Oct 2011. Just saying'.... Otherwise, considering I have basically used only IC and my online courses from a different university on Research Methodology, Memory and Cognition, and Biological Basis of Behavior, I was VERY disappointed to only get 74% on my practice test #2 (up from 60% test #1). I think there have been a great deal of changes since V2 was created...? Anyway, I would know far less if it weren't for IC so I am not "flaming" here. Just be prepared. I recommend buying Excelsior's practice tests so you won't be shocked. I was grateful with Social Psych too (A thanks to IC also). Thanks for letting me put my two cents in. Best to that next person who takes this test in a year! LOL.

Use the text Excelsior recommends. I didn't study as well as I planned, but still got a B. Also, the Instantcert flashcards.

Also, someday maybe a MS in Forensic Psychology, just for fun.   Oh, and a BS in Animal Behavior.  And, maybe when I'm 85 a PhD in something fun.
