STUDYGROUP101 need info..

Published

hey guys quick question i am taking my first exam Friday....life span development psych. i have studied my book completely front to back, taken both practice exams from Excelsior scored 62/68 and got some other online materials and quizzes. should i buy the studygroup101 for life span? has anyone used this one for a Excelsior test? a bit nervous since its my first test. just want to be prepared i know the practice exam perfectly and know all rationales just wondering if i should get this study-guide 101 material or not.

Thanks!

In my past experiences with Excelsior's practice exams a mid 60's score means high "B" on the real exam. I know a lot of people swear by studygroup 101's material, but I personally never found it to be that helpful. Info was too jumbled up, with too many spelling mistakes for my liking. If I were you, I would simply make sure that you've read your book, and that you understand all rationales on your practice exam. I think you've got this one in the bag. Good luck :) Let us know how your exam goes!

i also didn't care for SG101, it wasn't as condensed as they make it seem. I don't prefer someone elses notes thought either, rather take my own. Know your rationales, and the life span psych exam was fairly straighforward in my opinion. i think i used a chancellor's study guide for it, but i also had taken a ton of psych classes over the years for electives so i may have had a wider base of knowledge there anyway!
