Welcome to Instantcert, Tiffy! I have been using it for 2 years and I LOVE it!
BTW, I just took the Intro to World Religions DSST about 2 weeks ago. You really only need IC to pass it. I went way overboard on my prep...checked out 30+ books from the library (no kidding) and didn't even touch them, frantically searched Wikipedia for 10 days (not such a bad idea, but still not entirely necessary), and stressed myself over the supposed "difficulty" of the test. In reality, I breezed through the test in 18 minutes and 20 seconds and passed with a 481.
My advice is to go through IC and write down all the information, do a week's worth of researching on Wikipedia and religion sites for topics you don't know well or understand, go over all your notes the day before the test, browse through them again right before the test, and take the test. You'll do fine.
