Human Growth and Development

[Librevore]

Just curious to how much time was put in to passing Human Growth? Anyone?

Hi Magic. I found that about one week of study for the Human Growth & Development was fine but I had already taken Intro Soc and Intro Psych, both of which were helpful. To give you an idea of what a study week is to me, I study every night for an hour or so and try to study on Sundays for at least a 3 or 4 hour block. I also try to fit in 15 min. or so at lunch time. From what I can gather from other people's posts, I am probably somewhere in the middle of how long it usually takes to prepare for these lower level exams.

What's important is whether or not you feel like you are ready. IC and looking up anything unfamiliar on Wikipedia is all most would need to pass this one. If you know and understand the answers to the flashcards you are ready! If you take a Peterson's practice test and get at least 60% right (some say 50%), then I would feel really confident that you will pass it!

BTW, after you pass this you may want to take Intro Educational Psych too. There is a lot of overlap so you would already be pretty much prepared to pick up another 3 credits.

Hope this helps,
