Gen Ed. requirement for other world civilization - dini - 09-06-2007

I am with Empire State College and I was told tha i still have to fill a gen. ed. requirement for 'other world civilization'.
:mad: I already took U. S. history and Western Civilization but they say I need another one from world civilization. ::
Modern middle east meets that requirement but i read the reviews and they are terrible, they all recomend not taking it. my mentor said something about Vietnam but I don't see any vietnam exam.
Does anyone have any suggesstions?
Thank you
Dini

I’m assuming you need another 3 credits from Social Science/History – (other civilization).
What about the following exams:
Western Civilization II
American Government
Human/Cultural Geography
Human Growth and Development
Into. to Sociology or Psychology

or see if you can get 'Here’s to your health' approved it’s pretty easy and so is Sociology. I hope this helps.

Thank you guys, I think though that they want specifically another world civilization like Vietnam or Middle East (which I do not want to take) i took western civ. and American history.
Thanks again

Hi dini,

I took both the History of the Vietnam War and Introduction to the Modern Middle East exams. They are available as DANTES exams and, whilst definitely not easy, they ARE passable with adequate study.

Let me know if you do decide to take either of these exams. I will gladly shoot my study notes your way.

Best of luck,
Snazzlefrag

Thank You, I think those two are my only choice. (The Suny requirement is that it has to be another world civ. nothing related to western civilization.)
I would appreciate it if you can send me some of your notes, it sure would be a help.
Thanks again for your response,
and why again do you say it is not easy, is it because I cannot rely just on instantcert?

Thank You
dini
