    Default Help - Excelsior 300 UL exams ?

    Any tips are appreciated about Excelsior 300 UL exams.

    The school I need to get into requires Four 300 Upper level exams to be passed.

    Which subjects would take least amount of time to prepare to take exams?


    Thanks.

    I have yet to take these exams .....

    World Population
    World Conflict

    I'm told that these are easier exams and that they do not require a written essay, all multiple choice.

    Anyone care to support this statement?

    I have taken the World population exam and it was not too difficult. I would reccomend getting the book "World population" by John Weeks. Study the end of chapet review questions and answers and that really all you need. Also review the CIA world fact website for information on India and China.

    Thank you your tips.

    I searched in Amazon.com for "World population" by John weeks, but coming up as "Population". Is this it ?

    Thanks again.

    I would consider taking four ECE Psychology exams. There is some overlap in the exams . IC did not have flashcards when I took the exams but they do now. That should make them easier.
