I agree with Alissa - those are the tests I'd take and the order I'd take them in too. There will be overlap, and each test will build on the others. If you don't have to take the American Lit or the govt, I'd skip them.

The 3 psychology one have alot of overlap to them, that might be a good place to start. I have to do American Gov and I just saw that REA has a new study guide for that exam. As far as American Lit it depends on how well read you are in American Lit. I can't say how the Intro to Soc test is because I had already taken the class.

I definitely agree you should take the psychology exams. I took all four (plus Social Sciences and History) in 9 days last December. There is a lot of overlap.
Just going off the order I did these, I would recommend:
Intro to Edu Psychology--First
Human Growth and Development--Second
Intro to Psychology--Third
For Intro to Sociology, I don't know if you should do it before all the others or after. It was somewhat different from the psychology ones... I'd listen to someone else's advice on this.

Free advice: Never, under any circumstances, take the American Lit. exam unless you have to.
Sociology is easy. You could do it first.
I found American Gov't easy but I'm kind of quirky in that regard, so don't pay much attention to me. But if you like government stuff and you're familiar with how the government functions and have studied the basics of constitutional law, you'll be fine.

do you guys think that InstantCert is sufficient enough for the psy, human G&D, and sociology by itself? -thanks again

Totally agree, I barely passed by 4 points and I studied for weeks!

Is that the analyzing and interpreting American lit? If it is I'm surprised. I've heard its one of the easiest! :confused:
