Not hard. Just a large area to cover. I enjoy history and With some study I passed.
My score is 66.
I read through one of the recommended textbooks and I reviewed the IC flashcards a few times.

Pretty easy, knowing History is mainly knowing a broad series of facts/dates. Pretty fun test to study for. I used Eugen Webers "The Western Tradition" ( Resource: The Western Tradition ) was very helpful, as well as the REA guides for this test. The videos help cement many facts and ideas in your mind, more than straight reading, although that's valuable for this test as well. My score was 68 on WC 1.
