As with any facet of life "different strokes for different folks". I used IC for all but my 1st 2 test, it is not all I used for most of them, but some of them I had lots of prior knowledge. Some people here can study 1-2 hours and pass a CLEP or DSST, I would never dream of doing that. I passed all my exams with room to spare, but I always studied more than was required. I was over 50 years old when I started this process so I had lots of varied life experience. If you are just out of high school you may be able to pass the math or history exam with little study I would need LOTS of study to go back and learn that again. So remember don't judge others on just your experience, and especially on this forum don't tell us what works and does't work. Between the most involved current and past members of this forum we have hundreds of passed exams under our belts.
