Many of the questions on this test are freebees for someone with a decent understanding of computers and the rest are covered well by the instantcert flash cards. My only study for this test was reading through the flash cards once and I had no trouble. I could not have passed without instantcert but with the flashcards it was a breeze. I finished the test in less than 30 minutes and most tests take me 1 - 1.5 hrs.
YMMV depending on how well you retain information and how much existing computer experience you have.

Have you tried free-clep-prep.com? That and IC was all I used. Definitely hit the database topics hard as that will most likely be unfamiliar to the majority of test takers.

I just took the test and if you study all the flashcards and really memorize them you will do fine!
