I'll have to respectfully disagree. The Peterson's exams are SIGNIFICANTLY more difficult than the actual exam. This was true for every exam that I took, but it was very apparent when I studied for Intro to Computing and the similar CLEP version, Info System. If you have a basic working knowledge of computers, than you can pass Intro to Computing. There are some tough questions, but there are enough ridiculously easy questions to even it out.

Don't let the Peterson's practice tests freak you out!
