My favourite was the Humanities CLEP both to study for and take. Having heard of it as such a monster and being in the position of really needing humanities credits, it was the first test that I wasn't sure I could manage. As a result, spent a lot of time with IC and all the supplementary sources of study. On test day it was really satisfying to pick out little bits and pieces. Getting a 70 was a massive thrill, I must admit
Least favourite at this moment in time is the Psychology GRE. It was an unexpected start which became a rushed effort and absolutely consumed all my available thinking time. The books, the mindmaps, creating and rehearsing meaningful mneumonics, practice tests, mp3 podcasts and flashcards on the ipod filled every spare moment. It's difficult to get involved with the material without becoming attached to it. The test itself was tough and to think that I may have spent two and a half months busting for not many credits when other things could have been done is frustrating
