Geography 101 - jcnobles2 - 01-13-2009

I need the study material for this test. However, I don't see it listed in the subjects available. I'm taking the DANTES test for Geography 101. Can anyone help.

I plan on taking this one in the next few weeks. Here's some online resources, but I also plan to study one of the recommended books off the reading list.

Digital Library for Earth System Education

FreeRice: Subjects

Resource: Human Geography: People, Places, and Change

I really like using the Free Rice site, except that it makes me hungry. I have eaten much more rice since someone shared that link on here.

I took that test last week. A good study source for the human/cultural half of the test is the Kaplan AP Human Geography study guide. I suggest supplementing that with both physical/spatial geography (i.e., where countries/regions are on the globe/map) and the climatology portions of environmental science. Despite being called 'Cultural Geography' by DANTES, a full 50% of the test I took was based on physical geography/environmental factors.
