Sociology is NOT an easy exam anymore. I failed the exam with 48 score. Do not rely on IC flash cards, use other resources. This exam has changed, majority questions were not found in IC or REA book. It's better to be safe than sorry.

Sorry to hear that AlCert101. I just took the Sociology test last week as well. I think the IC cards were spot on though. I only used IC and got a fairly good score.
As one of the other posters mentioned, the ease of a test is relative to your life experience, the way you learn, and the resources you have to learn from.

Sorry to reiterate what has already been posted but the answer to your question is what you already know. For me U.S. History I and II were the easiest exams but I happen to be a history buff and just had to review cliff's quick review to take the exams. Others have stated these exams were hard. For me A&I was the easiest but then again I am a good reader. I took many science classes in my pursuit of my nursing license, but when I took the biology exam after studying for a month I failed by one point. You would have thought I would pass it with ease. Pick something you like, study for it and then take the exam. it is that simple. If science is your thing take a science quiz, if its english take a english test, if its math take a math course, if its computers, etc. No two people are alike. Best of luck.

I would choose A&I Literature as well. I was nervous about it, felt difficult, but minimal study was necessary. I would just take the Peterson's practice tests to get a feel for the exam. Easy 6 credits.

It also depends on which version you get when testing. It's the same with Here's to your health DSST. I got a test that was nothing like anything I had studied or like the practice tests I took. I passed it nicely, but it was a little nerve-racking.
