Management - 1 out of 5, 54% civilian pass rate, 97% pass rate on IC
Marketing - 1 out of 5, 76% civilianpass rate, 98% pass rate on IC
Western Civ I - 3 out of 5, 67% civilianpass rate, 95% pass rate on IC
Western Civ II - 3 out of 5, 52% civilianpass rate, 90% pass rate on IC
Computer Apps - 4 out of 5, 72% civilianpass rate, 96% pass rate on IC
This are in now way directed towards everyone. I can speak for myself when I say Marketing was super easy. I read the REA book once and passed with a 59. Computer Apps is listed really hard if you have a IT/Computer background. They are all definetly doable. Marketing/Management once will be the easiest followed by the Western Civ's. Your best bet is to sign yourself up for IC and start working on them in this order.
