Most high school students take World History, also known as Global Studies, for at least one year during their high school career. Many of these students want to review this course for final examinations and other tests, including Regent's exams, Advanced Placement tests and the SATs. There are many Global Studies review sheets online for students to look at and see what they need to review prior
. to their test. Waterville Schools, online at http://www.watervilleschools.org/education/components/docmgr/default.php?sectiondetailid=9941, has very thorough review sheets for this course. They were written by the instructor and they are broken into different categories. Students can pick and choose which ones to review, or simply print them all. This is a great listing for students who just want to see what topics are covered throughout the course. It is also helpful for anyone who just wants to review one or two topics, such as belief systems throughout the world. The Social Studies Department for the Buffalo Public Schools also has a complete review page for this course. It is online at http://www.buffaloschools.org/SocialStudiesDept.cfm?subpage=27738. The information on this page is intended to help students prepare for the New York State Education Regents examination, which is a standardized assessment test for students. This examination is required for students in New York who have taken Global Studies. They must pass the test with a certain percentage to earn a Regent's Diploma when they graduate. All students must pass the test with a score of at least 65 to graduate high school in New York, and the test is normally taken at the end of the sophomore year. The site also helps prepare students who are planning to take Advanced Placement tests in hopes of earning college credits. The site includes timed online quizzes to help prepare students, review sheets and test taking tips and strategies. http://www.watervilleschools.org/education/components/docmgr/default.php?sectiondetailid=9941 or http://www.buffaloschools.org/SocialStudiesDept.cfm?subpage=27738
