Intro to Psychology for sure...just use the flashcards and the feedback everyone has left should be good to go.

Although there is some overlapping, Educational requires quite a few more specific names and details specific to education.
If you review past posts, you will see that others have always suggested taking Intro to Psych first, then move on to various other psych courses as much of the material overlaps but keeps getting more difficult.

Psychology 101 is easier than Educational Psychology

Don't worry about splitting hairs on "intro". ....just put these puppies behind you. If you are taking CLEP or DSST, it is whatever name they have named it.
Bottom line: Psych is easier then Ed. Psych.
