DSST World Religion Exam HELP - hjborn@yahoo.com - 06-07-2020
What are the best ways to study for the intro to world religion's exam? I've tried instacert and quizlet but they weren't enough especially when I did practice tests most of the questions asked weren't even in the instantcert the questions were different from the official practice tests. Did anyone else feel like this? Did you pass? What did you you to pass?
Thank you

Have you looked at Sophia? Their courses are free until July 31st. They have a course in religions. Would this course work for you? Do you know which college you want to end up getting a degree from?

I used Religion for Dummies

I learned a lot and I passed, but I had trouble with the buddhism vs confucianism questions
don't want to sound racist, but all the names and places sounded the same to me
this looks like it might be good too
