I took this exam yesterday, and scored a 59. I studied IC and the 54 questions in the CLEP Official Study Guide (18th Ed.) 5 questions came straight out the book. I had a lot of the same questions as auminer49r, plus: how to calculate the birth rate, mortality rate, population growth rate, poverty rate, and intragenerational vs intergenerational.
Overall, very doable with IC alone.
Good Luck everyone,
Anne
