Intro to World Religions DSST, Anyone??

[libartsmgr]

Way to go nqt! Passing is passing.

If you're feeling like IC may have some "holes" in your studies - take advantage of the growing list of resources on the sticky for Exam Resources. And if you're not already using it, get to know wikipedia.

Good luck!

nqt,

Congratulations on yet another passed exam!

Forgive me if I am mistaken, but my guess is that English is not your first language. This is something that could potentially hinder your studies and impact your performance on the exams...but you seem to be overcoming any language barrier that may be in your way.

So extra special congratulations are in order!

You are doing great.

Keep it up,

Took the Intro World Religion test yesterday. Not feeling good about it. I guessed most of the way through even though I used IC. It is encouraging however, to see others with similar feelings who passed. I recommend to use more sources since this subject covers such a wide area. These questions were the ones where you needed to make the best choice and others had you pick from the list below of which ones apply. There were very few questions I had where I felt like "I knew this was right". Anyway, thanks for letting me vent.

MagicATC, don't panic just yet okay?

If you knew the Instantcert material well, and as long as you kept your head on straight during the exam, you will very likely have passed. This was not an easy exam by any means. I studied especially hard for this exam and STILL came out of the test center with no clue whether I had passed or failed.

As you say, there were lots of group-selection type questions. I always find these to be a bit tricky. You 'think' you may have got it right, but you're never quite sure. I too had to make many 'guesses' but, for the most part, they were educated guesses based on what I had learned.

I had to wait a full three weeks for my World Religions score. But, when it came, I was surprised. I scored a 76.

So all I can say is, if you studied hard for this one, and didn't totally fall to pieces in the exam, I doubt you will have failed.

Let us know how you do.

Best of luck,
Snazzlefrag

Assuming I passed the Civil War exam that I took last week, I need 39 more credits (13 exams) for my BS in Psychology, and then an additional 30 new credits (10 exams) for my BS in Business.

It's been constant studying and exams since last November. But I'm getting there!

I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel....I just hope it's not a train.

Hi Snazz,

What you have accomplished already is amazing. I noticed just recently that you are going for the business BA as well as the psych one. I'm curious--I know that having both degrees will be personally satisfying (tremendously!) but will there be a career benefit as well? If you don't mind sharing, what are your eventual career and educational goals? And MagicATC is right. You are a great encourager.

Thanks in advance,
