Political Science TECEP - firedome75 - 07-24-2012

Anyone taken this TECEP exam that wants to throw me a bone? Maybe some good study material, books, or websites to look up? Any help would be much appreciated, this is my last class I need for my BA.

I'm sitting for this next week! Has anyone here attempted it? I took American Government CLEP two weeks ago.

I passed this test with a 78% in 45 minutes of the 120 minutes allocated time. It requires a 65%.
My test had short and straightforward questions of which some related to:

Machiavelli
First amendment of US Constitution
non-state actors
parliamentary system, a lot on this.
Locke
A good definition of political science
Marx!, And all the other major players in the history of political thought


I studied using the Saylor tests then branched out from there. I did not watch the long Saylor lectures, however I did read a few of the interesting essays on democracy, communism, and problems with political science as a discipline.

I would use the free study resources listed in the TECEP description. There's the Saylor course, a free textbook, and/or video lectures all listed if I remember right.
