So if you've taken this exam, you know there are probably over ten different theories to know. I enjoy learning about these theories, but I'm worried that I won't remember all of them. If you have taken PoM, did you use any special technique or tool to memorize the theories and the names of those who came up with them to ensure you'd remember, or did you just read through your study materials and hope for the best? Purely curious.
Thanks!

You'll probably be surprised what you remember. The test gives you clues as you go and will jog your memory. I read one book and took the exam and scored into the 70s easily. It's not a hard test at all, one of the easiest in my opinion. Good luck.

The Principles of Management Peterson exams were easy for me to complete but I did take a five credit B&M course in it. The best way to get it in your head is how would you apply it in the real world. Starbucks just launched a thing called playbook it's a management system right out of Fredrick Taylor's diary, but I'm not sure it will make the customer experience any better. It's all about the customer.
Don't forget that gaining college credit by taking exams is one of the reason's we're here. That's mainly possible through the flashcards made available by the owner of this forum :

You'll be fine. Check out the videos from Educationportal.com (they are free) and do the flashcards on here and on FREE CLEP prep.com and it's an easy test. GIve yourself a couple days and make sure you know all the people and their theories. Check recent posts for what people are encountering on the exam and follow their lead/notes.
