I listened to the Intro to Psych lectures from HACC in the car on the way to/from work and they were great. The professor's last name is Bailey. Being a 'captive audience' worked for me and the lectures really did help connect the dots of the material I'd been reading. It's been said above, but education portal and allpsych are fabulous resources. IC is great, but I wouldnt test on that alone.
Thanks OpenRoot,
I'll definitely check it out!.....:-)

I read through an Intro to Psychology book to get an overview, then my main study sources were the IC flashcards and Wikipedia. Every major term and important person on the IC flashcards I looked up on Wikipedia to get a fuller picture of it. I was really scared after I took the Official CLEP Study Guide practice test the night before because there were so many questions I hadn't gone over! However, the actual test that I took seemed easier and I knew more of those questions.
My sister also took this test - she went part-way through a college class on Psychology, but she ended up deciding to drop it and take the CLEP instead. She used only the IC flashcard and passed!
Hope that helps! Be sure to check out the Specific Feedback section too!
