I really wanted to take the time to watch the Burns series before the examination. I even bought the DVD set! I was just too busy with work, home, two EC courses, anothe DANTEs, and some "live" courses at a local college.
Basically, I looked at Instantcert, read "Civil War For Dummies", looked at the threads in regards to the exam on this forum as well as the Sparknotes. I got a 66 on the exam.
Best of luck to you and as a open note to all posters, I still have all the Civil War material and will be glad to pass it on to anybody who needs it. Just PM me and it's yours
Till next time,
Mike
