I took that test last month and received a 458. The flash cards are great-- but I would suggest taking the practice tests in Petersons.com as well. Good luck!

If you all are members, you can access all of this simply by signing on, then again signing on to the forum again, click on Exam Specific Forums (on the first page after you sign in the second time, the 4th item on the list), and then do a forum search for the test you are interested in.
All will be made available to you, from those who have gone before! I'm sharing this because it took me some time to find out where this was "hidden". Good luck! Judy

Thucydides, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Hobbes, Locke, Bentham, Epicurus, Mills, Rawls, Royce, Rosseau, Medical ethics, Feminist ethics of care, Hinduism, Confucianism, Ethics of the land Leopold, Native American code of ethics, Read about Hippocratic oath, euthanasia, all the laws like Natural Law. Divine theory, moral law, King and racism, segregation, Thomas Aquinas, Thomas Jefferson and Government, Affirmative action, Death row retributive and distributive justice, restorative, cloning and new policy for embryos and stem cell research, Informed consent, medical research ethics, Syphilis study of 1970 biblical tradition, Kant and utilitarianism lots of these. double effect, Social contract theory, United Nations, Pacifist ethics what do pacifist do and how do they think, Mark and a question about the bourgeoisie etc.
Good Luck all!!!
