About ECE American Dream

[stillwater89]

Hi all anyone have any idea or experience with this test HSSX 420American Dream (460) EXAM. If so what did you use for study guide and if this exam is worth it. Beside World Conflicts Since 1900 i may need another upper test any though?

I never took the exam but I was getting ready to. I purchased the Excelsior course guide and it lists 3 books. The course guide has a list of readings and assignments to do from the books. It just seemed like to much work at the time. Here are the books. Couse guide is dated 2003 not sure if much has changed since then.
Good Luck,
Bob

Hi bob, how are you doing? I have to agree with you it seen to be allot of work i am not sure it is worth it. I am looking to enroll in excelsior in about april and major in history. Do you have any thought on the HSS *440 Historiography Class?

Do you have any thought on the HSS *440 Historiography Class?

No I have no experience with that class. Is it required at Excelsior?

Yes Is it required at Excelsior i was wondering if there was another test i could take that would cover it If anyone knows let me know.

[Bob]

There is no exam that I am aware of that would cover that one. BYU has some distance history courses that incorporate research that may work. I beleive they are cheaper than Excelsior.
good luck,
Bob
