Hooray!! I passed the Dantes Technical Writing with a 64 and 1hr to spare. (technically speaking, the previous sentence is structured incorrectly...lol

) This was my first exam and I was SUPER nervous. It didn't help that the test center was a bit noisy and VERY hot.
I still haven't taken Civil War because I'm chicken. But me rocrastination the Civial War exam backfired on me. I'm not as fresh with knowledge as I was 2 weeks ago when I just finished watching the Ken Burns Series. BIG MISTAKE. I should have bit teh bullet and taken it within a few days. Now I'm going to have to study a little more...
To end on a positive note: YAY, I passed my first exam. hilarious

Well, lets see....
[SIZE=2]Civil War:I already pretty much studies for the Civil War exam (I simply need to review).
A&I Lit: I read alot of old lit so I think I should be fine. I'll simply brush up with lit terms and a few more practice exams.
[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2] Ethics: I've taken an Ethics in Healthcare and a Philosophy course in the past. I plan on using IC and some of the links & info provided by the forum members.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]World Religion: For world religions, I got alot of info and actual links on this site. I also already remted several world religion type educational dvds. From my understandign, that should be enough.
I'm going to take A&I Lit on Mon. On Tuesday, I'm taking World Religion & Civil War. I'm saving Ethics for Thurs. This is simply my tentative schedule....let's see if I can make it
