I took the test three times, the first two times I was studying the wrong material until I got introduced to these videos. These were the only videos that helped me pass the test this past Friday. Study these and you will pass the exam.

    All I can say is that these three FAU videos helped me to pass the FCLE today 1/17/24. I do not attend FAU, but I am extremely grateful for these videos being public. It's been 4 years since my federal government class. I would just listen to these videos on and off over the last 2 weeks while at my desk job. This morning, I listened to the first 2 videos and then took off from work to take this exam. 80 questions, done in 30 minutes. Passed. Although these videos didn't cover every topic on my test, they sure as heck helped!! Thank you very much for these great videos! I've already recommended them!

About an hr before the exam I gave a couple quick run-throughs of the 6 min vid on UA-cam by TutorHawk on how to quickly remember the amendments. Just my 2 cents- know your court cases and amendment basics really well if you're not strong on the early history stuff and you're good to pass. Doing that got me 65/80 for very little study time. Good luck!

    I just finished the FCLE about 10 minutes ago (Feb 2024) and I’m driving home writing my brain dump. This exam prep is perfectly tailored to the content of the FCLE. It makes sense too, since the presenter of this video says she took the test multiple times to learn what content to teach. Of the 80 questions, about 30 were case law, and I didn’t see a single “case” that she didn’t talk about in video two. Every single case she teaches is relevant to the test.
    The “memory cheats” she mentions are also very valuable. MAPP v OHIO = 4 letters = fourth amendment. I really remembered it that way for the test.
    The remaining 50 questions were mostly asking any of the following:
    Verbiage or identifying from a historical document
    Questions about federalism, Supreme Court, and what rulings effected what amendments. It was amendment heavy.
    Amendments 1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 14, 15 were mentioned on my test.
    So here’s my tip:
    Get some paper and turn this video on speed 1.5x and just pause it to take notes. Anything she emphasizes, be sure to write.
    Know the precession of the historical documents, this will help you deduce an answer. Mayflower compact, articles of confederation, common sense, etc etc. know the order.
    Dates also helped me figure out answers. I knew court cases from 1960’s didn’t have anything to do with James Madison (who lived in the late 1700s).
    Overall I can confirm that this study guide video is both extremely relevant to the test but also does NOT include any other unrelated info. This instructor sticks very efficiently to what you need to know.
    Lastly, this test is pretty easy. The questions aren’t tricks and usually 1 of the 4 multiple choice answers is the “obviously wrong” choice.
    10/10 thank you to this instructor.

Those 3 videos helped a lot,there were some questions that weren’t covered in the videos, but if you use the elimination process, you’ll be ok. Watch the three videos, take notes, and do the practice tests, and you’ll be good to go. I’m an international student, so I had to learn everything from the beginning. If you’re a U.S. citizen and took a history class in high school, you’ll be fine. Just make sure you learn the landmark cases and all the amendments, and you’ll do great!

    Hi! I just wanted to let those worried about passing know that today, 11/8/2024, I passed the FCLE on the first try! Listen y'all, I am the absolute WORST test taker. I have some of the worst testing anxiety EVER. I fear of ANY test, to the point I fear of taking any proctored exam, ever. This was a challenge, mentally. I watched video 1 and 2 for 3 days straight, and knowing I only do well with repetition, I took her practice tests OVER AND OVER. I genuinely liked learning about the landmark cases; the rest was a bit harder to retain. I walked in at 11:30am this morning to go take the test at the college campus, trying to feel as confident as possible. Not taken a proctored exam in 2 years, I was nervous. I remembered to wear some hand lotion that I could smell on my wrist that could calm me, and my nice comfy shoes and outfit. I faked my confidence, because fake it til you make it! I got assigned to my computer, and started right in. It took me over an hour...(Again, this is coming from someone who has quite literally the worst, severe test anxiety-this won't be the case for everyone). Nearing the last 10 questions, I started to squirm out of anxiety. I was preparing my defeat, because the questions were NOT straightforward, unfortunately, like the practice questions. They were tricky! (biggest pet peeve on exams). Being familiar with these contents is the ~BARE MINIMUM~. If you do well at exams, I perceive you will do well on this, IF you familiarize yourself, REALLY WELL. When I saw the "yes" on the computer, I couldn't really believe it. I was shocked. I walked out of the room, shocked thinking, "Did I actually pass?" I got my scores the night of on my college website. Did I do amazing? No. Unfortunately, I did not do amazing. Did I pass? HECK YES! I can graduate!! Thank you, Ms. VeggieTales for these videos! My confidence in test taking has somewhat been restored. 😄!! Good luck to you all!❤

    Just passed thanks to you and these videos! Tips for those about to take the exam…
    1) Watch ALL THREE videos. This is the only thing I studied and scored high.
    2) Over 50% of the exam were the cases and amendments, and how they relate to each other. Commit those to memory if nothing else.
    3) Slow down and read the questions carefully. I almost got tripped up a couple times due to the wording of the exam.
    4) About 5/80 questions on my exam were about specific Articles and random quotes that correspond to them, if you feel the need to study for those.
    Thank you for making these videos to help us! 🤍

    I only used her video to study and kept revising it especially to key points she expresses on. There were only 5 questions on there that I was confused about that I don’t recall was mentioned in the video, but don’t worry, you will still pass.
    Take your time and read the questions! Some are based on common sense, don’t doubt yourself. At the end of the test, it only tells you if you passed, no set percentage shown.

    I took my test today, 8/28/2024 and while I do not have my official score, I do know that I passed. All I did was watch this video and part two, and take notes as I went through her video. The way she remembers specific cases in the second video helps a ton. I literally only watched these videos the night before and took my test early the next morning. If you use her study methods, you got this!

I promise you, if you watch/listen all 3 videos, take great notes, you will do well. Waiting on my actual score but I got 60% or more correct. Just as she stated, the amendments and cases are major parts of the exam; understand them, remember them,and you will pass the first time as well. Good Luck!!!

    This is honestly the only material (along with the second video explaining the 22 landmark cases) that helped me get a 95% on the exam with only two and a half days of studying. There where like 4 questions talking about the Magna Carta and how certain English rules compared to post revolutionary war rules pertaining to the constitution and articles of confederation that weren’t covered here but that’s about it. The grand majority of the exam was based off the 27 amendments and the 22 landmark cases along with which amendments where attached to each/ what rules where emphasized from the ones that did not have an amendment attached to them. These two videos explain in perfect detail what will be on the test and I can’t be any more grateful for finding them before the exam to use for studying and prepping.

    I just took the exam, probably wouldn't have passed without video 1 and 2. I took the bootcamp my college offers too before taking it. In addition to all of that, I purchased flashcards from Amazon called "Civics and English flashcards to Study for The US citizenship Test with Official 100 USCIS Illustrated Questions and Answers". With all the material I studied I feel like out of 80 questions on the exam only 20/25 were on the test. I thought I'd go in and be finished in 20 or 30 minutes. Took me 1.5 hrs bc I kept 2nd guessing answers. Passed, but bottom line...you have to know how to apply the amendments/cases etc. Good luck to anyone taking the exam in the near future. You got this!!! 👏

      Hey hun, I am so sorry you are struggling with this. My heart absolutely breaks for you coming from someone who struggles to pass exams due to my severe testing anxiety. It is the absolute worst feeling, that something that is supposed to promote learning, does the opposite by causing stress! I am a very "repetition" type person, so doing her practice exams over and over until I was confident was the only thing that helped, and knowing the landmark cases that she covered to a T. Cross elimination helped too on the actual exam. I took over an hour on the test...and I did not score the best, but I did pass today on my first try. I am happy to message you if there are specific's that you are struggling with, although like I said, I did not score the highest. Again, I am so so sorry. I have confidence in you that you can pass though! I feel like if IIII of all people can do it, ANYONE can😭. I am also a big advocator of PRE test and what you do in that time...Getting up, getting outside and walking around for some fresh air, I wore some scented lotion on my hands for the test so I could smell it and be calmed by the scent. I also wore super comfy shoes too. I tried to trick my brain into thinking it was the most normal thing out of my day. Right before the exam I looked over the practice exam for about 15 minutes, and then gave it to God and just had to believe it would work out- or just leave the state and go somewhere else to get my A.A., LOL. I'll be praying you can pass!
