Good morning IC world!
I noticed Instantcert does not have flashcards for the DSST Human/Cultural Geography. I looked up on the exam specific threads and got some posts with links and suggestions. I think this will be very useful; I just noticed only one is from 6 months ago and all the others are a couple years old. Does anybody have any recent feedback on this one?

So I just researched my own question (above) through the discussion forums and found quite a bit of help. If anybody has any important updates however that would be GREAT!

I have been dying to take this test and posted almost the identical question a few weeks back. I ended up going with Environment and Humanity instead because I needed to hurry and finish my COSC general requirements and that test also did the trick.
I am dissapointed that I didn't take it because I love geography. Once I'm finish doing all of my business requirements, I calculate that I'll still need 11 credits. I will probably take this in April or May, but if you decide to do it before then, please make sure to post feedback. I will definitely do so once I take it.

I took this test today. I passed with a 55.
It wasn't easy for me, although I found much of the topic very interesting. Trying to remember who's theory was whose was rather trying, and what kinds of water/glacier running into what kind of land was what. I liked the religion, language and culture, even those parts during the test. (it was 98 questions)
I want to post pretty good detail on this one so I think I had better do that in the main theme one. Hopefully today. Before I go though this was my favorite link for physical geography. I did not like the rice watumacallit

Thanks for the update. I don't need too many more CLEP credits, and the ones I have left are pretty much only for my major. I still really want to take this test though!!
DS is in the slow process of learning and testing, so maybe once I'm done, I'll take this test for fun to see what resources would be best to use.

I just want to say thank you for posting and following up. I think it looks like a fun test, I just don't need the credit.

I passed by studying the AP human cultural geography book. You can get the ebook for about 10 dollars.
I added a little bit of physical geology studying online and the test was very doable.
