so i found a 'study guide" that sort of gives me an idea of what area's to focus on, BUT i've yet to find what i'm actually supposed to study? i think the questions are great on the flash cards, but it'd be nice if i actually knew what they were talking about. i thought the point of paying for this study course was that i would be able to study the info. am i supposed to buy a book? i only need this one class, intro to world religions, and i'm wondering if i'm just left to get info on my own.

use the Specific Exam Feedback section(you need to log in to see it) and also google and wikipedia, thats all I used to score a 450 on this test,no textbook no books on religions.. basically nothing else, good luck

I would check out "The Complete Idiot's Guide to World Religions" by Brandon Toropov. I haven't read it but I've heard that it's an excellent resource.
I would go through all the IC flashcards first and then read the book. Then go over the IC cards a second and third time until you've got it down.
I would check the book out at your local library first, if they don't have it then check out Amazon.com. Here is the link for the book on Amazon:
Amazon.com: The Complete Idiot's Guide to World Religions, 3rd Edition (The Complete Idiot's Guide): Brandon Toropov, Father Luke Buckles: Books
Hope this info helps. Good luck on your exam.
Peace be with you always.

Everything you need to study is in the Specific Feedback section. I just took this test and got a 76 (out of 80 with 48 pass/55 = A) using the forum notes and wikipedia. If you've already gone through the IC flashcards just read the feedback section, copy what everyone says you need to know and look it up in wikipedia. I can tell you that the next to last post is very accurate.
