    Default Best Online Resources

    I thought that it would be helpful to compile a list of online resources other than IC that can be used to pass exams, especially UL (ECE) exams. For example the following online resources have been mentioned here for a variety of exams:

    Wikipedia.org
    Sparkchart.com

    Any others?

    Good idea Steelers,

    Here are a few web links to sites that are either general reference encyclopedias, or contain study resources for more than one academic subject.

    I recommend you visit each one, and have a look around. SAVE any sites that you think will be helpful to you now or in the future.

    Good luck,
    Snazzlefrag

    Pittsburgh here....Go Steelers!

    Actually, I'm British and not into sports at all. So I don't even understand what's happening half the time...I know it has something to do with a bunch of oversized knuckleheads running into each other and getting a funny shaped soccer ball over a line! LOL

    But yeah...Go Steelers. Rah Rah Rah!

    I have no idea who the Falcons or the Braves are (but I'm sure they're very nice teams). The only reason I know who the Steelers are, is because I live in Pittsburgh, and EVERYONE here is Steelers crazy.

    Don,

    Try not to get too stressed out by the Marketing exam. Instantcert has everything you need to know to comfortably pass it.

    Things to Know:

    Know what Star, Problem Child, Cash Cow, and Dog are.
    Know all about the Four P's: Product, Place, Price, Promotion.
    Know the stages of Buying Behavior.
    Know the stages of New-product Development.
    Know the stages of the Product Adoption Process.
    Know what Vertical and Horizontal Channel Distribution are.
    Know the Types of Buyers in the Product Diffusion Process.
    Know Elasticity/Inelasticity of Demand.
    Know New-task Buying, Straight Rebuy, Modified Rebuy.
    Know Push Promotion and Pull Promotion.
    Know the Sherman Antitrust Act.
    Know the Clayton Act.
    Know the Federal Trade Commission Act.
    Know the Robinson-Patman Act.

    If you know all of the above, you will be well on your way to an excellent score on this exam.

    Also remember that it's a Pass/Fail exam.

    Study Hard! Do Well!

    Best of luck on Tuesday,
    Snazzlefrag
