For several exams I used only the IC flashcards.
My success was mostly in putting together study guides based off the feedback forums for each exam.
Figuring out WHAT to study is critical. There's only so much to put on an exam--and it's important to focus on that. Otherwise you'll find yourself studying things that will have no relevance on the exam. Instead you'll come across questions you never glanced over. I feel like the key is recognizing correct answers. If you glanced over something in the flashcards or during your studies, you'll have a great shot on the exam.
On that note, the flashcards are succinct and they've made them contain the topics you need to know. So even if you built study guides off the flashcards--the general topics--and did some light internet research on each topic (no exam is going to go way in depth) , then you're good to go.
I hope this helps. If anyone else has feedback throw it in!

Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.
