There is a lot of material covered on the exam.
Has anyone taken this after using Study.com's resources and done well? Do those study guides typically help out a lot?
My limited experience with Study.com preparing you for Uexcel tests is that the Study.com guide is insufficient. I took a business-related Uexcel and about 20% of the questions on the exam were not in Study.com's version. If you check around the forums here, that seems to be a common complaint; apparently Uexcel updates their tests more often than Study.com updates their version and so differences develop.
I would suggest you get the practice test offered by Excelsior itself if I were you. As someone else here said, the test covers alot of ground but if you're already pretty familiar with the Cold War, WW1 and WW2, you basically just have to get caught up on the India-Pakistan wars and the War on Terror. If you're not familiar with any of those things you have alot of reading to do
I'm finishing up a TESU BA in History right now and I may end up taking this one myself, although I haven't decided yet. If I do, I will let you know how it goes.
