Question about World Conflicts ECE Study Guide
#1
Hey everybody!

I'm studying for my World Conflicts Since 1900 Excelsior exam for coming Friday.
I found this summary online and decided to study this too to fill in the gaps: Focused Study Guide for World Conflicts Since 1900
It really looks great, but I found out that this website is from at least 2010, maybe even earlier.
Now my question: how long has the current study guide from Excelsior itself been around? Because this summary is based on the outline, but maybe there was a different study guide back then?
Please help me! My exam is in less than two days, and I don't feel certain at all; especially because I studied only with study.com (formally education-portal.com), because in their syllabus it was written that only their course would be enough to pass the test, and used no books at all. And then I found out in the practice test of Excelsior that they asked questions about very different subjects that I didn't learn at study.com
So, I hope study.com is enough to pass the exam!
Thanks for any help,

Hanny

Hey Hanny, how did you do on the test?

This might be a little late...but for any who might come along later:
The Excelsior study guide is updated annually. To find the most current one, just download it from their website.

I used the study guide linked in the OP's post as an end-of-study review. I don't have personal experience with Study.com's videos for this specific test, but from my test experience I'd say get the 3 recommended textbooks if you can! You might pass, but several of the questions are specific to the textbook. For example, what is so-and-so author's take on this issue. If you have time, watch some Youtube videos or movies related to the topics you're studying, i.e. Yugoslavia documentary.

Well, I didn't pass; I failed with a D Sad
The study.com course wasn't sufficient enough at all! I think I will try it again, but then study with the three books Excelsior recommends.
It's really strange, because with genetics I also studied with study.com and then I passed.
Strange....
Thanks for your info! Wink

Many of us have failed at least one exam, chin upl Did you get a chance to review Westerners feedback on the exam? Good luck on the retake! http://www.degreeforum.net/excelsior-tho...post149331
