I didn't use IC for that one. I used the exam content sheet from Excelsior's website as an outline for my wikipedia and google searches. This test favors understanding over memorization, so I think mine was the better route anyway.
The Specific Exam feedback section has more info, if you're a subscriber.

I did use the specific exam feedback, Dr. Hindman videos listed in the feedback area and the EC practice exam. You really have to invest in the practice exam. The scenarios are the same on the practice exam as the real exam so that saves you some reading. The exam is 3 hours and you will need most of that. You have to know how to apply the theories to scenarios. That is where the videos and practice exam helped. I did review some of the IC flashcards as they helped some. I got a B with the above study methods. I didn't use the EC guide as I don't like how they are layed out. I also didn't read the recommended texts. I purchased them, but never could get through them. I gave up once I found the videos. Good luck!

Could use a little encouragement....preparing for Excelsior Ethics: theory and practice. I am using College Network study guide, reviewing IC flashcards...people are reporting they take this exam with just a few days to a couple weeks study. HOW? I am either not real bright or I am working too hard at it and stressing (most likely reason) Is it possible to forge ahead faster than I seem to be? Any help would be appreciated. I did just download #60s posted notes which are great. Thanks
