Business Ethics and Society

[starlinghunter]

This is so annoying; Wikipedia can't find half of the philosophers mentioned in the flash cards! And there are an awful lot of them, all contributing small details here and there in the issue of Business and Ethics.

If anyone has any general thoughts on this test, how accurate IC flashcards are (i.e. topics they missed, that need to be, or that they covered, that don't), and what resources you used for the test, as well as any links to online practice tests (or files) that you found, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks,

I don't remember having a ton of philosophers to worry about on that test.
There are a few heavy hitters like Kant and Confucius. I'd recommend reading one of the recommended texts and exam specific feedback. The test is not that hard though. I took it about 2 years ago but I remember having to know landmark court cases, acts of congress and some ethical philosophy.

I chose this instead of Ethics in America, so I wouldn't need to understand all of those details. I still actually needed help with the major philosophies. Try these links:

Thanks guys; that's pretty helpful!

Ryoder's right, you won't have many philosophers. FCP's PT is the closest and most accurate for this one. Free Clep Prep

The last update for DSST tests was in 2008, so do you all think there was enough stuff on current day Co. matters, that I should research the recent years events that IC doesn't cover?

[Publius]

Nah. Go through the IC cards, skim through the FCP links, and take FCP's PT. Do that and you should pass with no problem. I only spent a day or so studying and the test it self was pretty fun, as far as tests go.

I'd forgotten that Free Clep Prep had PTs. Apparently have an account with them, took the Intro. to Computers PT, and scored 76%! I don't even remember that. :/
