Civil War and Reconstruction - living4Him - 12-10-2011 Does anyone have any tips for the DSST Civil War and Reconstruction. Anyone taken it lately? Civil War and Reconstruction - hts9 - 12-10-2011 I took the Civil War Reconstruction exam. PASSED WITH A 68 ! Used IC, went thru it 3 times. Found the entire Ken Burns series on line, watched all 9 episodes. This really help me pass the test, worth the 10 hours watching it. Also very entertaining. Here is the link to the Ken Burns Civil War Documentary: The Civil War - 01 The Cause - War on DocuWatch - free streaming war documentaries Also a very good thread on this site: http://www.degreeforum.net/specific-...tion-dsst.html FYI, I only used IC and the Ken Burns series, 30 hours total time. Civil War and Reconstruction - living4Him - 12-10-2011 Thanks - I'll have to check that out. I'm doing IC three times around, but was wondering how hard the test is. Civil War and Reconstruction - Storyteller - 12-10-2011 Be sure to check the specific feedback on this test, it is very helpful. Also, learn the commanders of the various battles in both the eastern and western fronts - Don't ignore reconstruction either. It's not called Civil War & Reconstruction for nothing. Good luck. Oh, Yeah! Also, check out you-tube videos by David Blight - his 27 hour lecture series on the Civil War was fantastic and it can be downloaded to an Mp3 player. Now, good luck! Civil War and Reconstruction - living4Him - 12-10-2011 Yes, I've started to download David Blights lectures. Did you find them significantly helpful? Civil War and Reconstruction - Storyteller - 12-11-2011 I learned alot from Professor Blight. However, it depends on your learning style.
