This was my first test, with many more to go. Out of 108 questions I had to really think about 10. Some questions were easier that I thought they would be, but I really have no feeling on how I did. I did not feel prepared going into the test mostly because I had been taking the practice tests in a booklet that DANTES puts out and I had not passed one. I did do well on the InstantCert flash cards, but was very worried going into the test because of lack of performance on the DANTES Standardized Test Booklet. I did ok (not great but passing) on the computer version of the practice test from then dsst web site. A person waiting to take a test at the test site did say that the questions in the booklet are much more diffiuclt than the actual test.
Your posts on this forum have been such a help. I really enjoy reading them, it is great how everyone supports each other. I will let you know when I get the result back. It was a penicl and paper test not computerized. Joyce |

I used Religion for Dummies to prepare for this exam. It was not easy from what I remember, I did manage to pass it! I wouldn't recommend taking this exam without a decent amount of preparation!

I've been averaging scores between 60-72 on CLEP and DSST tests--and the most questions I've ever positively known the answers to on any given test were 60. Usually it was more like 40-50. If you only "really had to think about 10" I'll bet you did pretty well.

Hi All,
This was my first exam, and I was really overwhelmed going into the test. I just got my results, passing was 48 and I was awarded (or should I say I earned) a 74. This was a big boost for me, I was so worried. InstantCert really helped, it is a really good way to study. Thanks for the support. --------Joyce |

Organizational Behavior is next. This is a really dry subject, Intro to World Religions was at least interesting. I have not looked at the InstantCert flash cards for this subject yet, I am just starting chapter 3 of my module on this subject, and I am not sure when I should start looking at the flash cards! (Can anyone advice?) I had finished the module on World Religions before I signed up with IC so I was able to get into the flash cards immediatley.
