Human Cultural Geography DSST - popalnet - 03-22-2009
I'm taking Humand/Cultural Geography Dantes test this coming Friday. IC doesn't have flash cards for this test so if anyone can offer any advice and or tips it would be greatly appreciated.
I've noted info from previous posts, but the data I noted is pretty old - posts were from one year ago or older. So any new or additional infor is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I took this test a couple of months ago and passed. First, I took the fact sheet and went through it well. I then used a textbook that was on the fact sheet as one of the suggested study materials. The book I used was called Human Geography Culture, Society and Space by de Blig. I also went through the specific feedback on this site regarding this test and used that info to study from too. I googled maps and studied them for a few hours. This was VERY helpful. Know maps and where places are in relation to each other. Other than that this test kind of wandered around a little, and I felt it was difficult.
Good luck and let us know how you do.

Thanks so much for your feedback. Unfortunately I don't have enough time to order the book you mentioned since I'm taking this exam this coming Friday morning. Good to know that I really need to study maps. I'm doing the same technique that you are using - studying the items mentioned in the study guide, but there is so much to read with each section. Hopefully I'll be able to wing it.
Thanks again.

Took the test this morning and passed. Thanks to highlander's post it prepared me for the test. A lot of what highlander mentioned I saw on the test. For those seeking what highlander posted, do a search under for his name.
