American Government or Anthropology????

[evette37]

Hello,
I need to take one of these exams in a week or two. Which should I take considering preparation time? Thanks.

It really depends on your interest level. I was very uninterested in Anthropology so I spent as little time as possible preparing. The majority of my study time was cramming the 2 days before the test. I don't agree with most of the subject matter so I didn't feel bad at all about cramming the info in and then forgetting it as soon as possible.

American Government was very interesting to me, and I felt it was an important subject. I already had a lot of knowledge on it so studying for the test was easy. Probably about 2 weeks of a couple hours a day study, if I remember correctly.

You could probably do either, just depends on what you're most interested in and what you are most knowledgeable in.

Good luck!

I would do Anthropolgy, I did it with than three days of study time

Anthropology. I used the SparkCharts Anthropology, I got them from bn.com for a 5 bucks, and you can print them off right away. I believe its 3 pages front and back, so about 6 pages total reading, I read them 2 times a day for 3 days and took the test, got a 58 only need a 47. But all i used was Sparkcharts and about 4-5 hrs total study time

I agree three days and feedback is enough to pass.

Anthropology was interesting and did not take a lot of time to master.
