Organizational Behavior DSST
I was checking out the Organizational Behavior DSST thread in the Specific Exam Feedback ONLY section. I don't really see any books for this exam. TUI is letting me take this exam to satisfy one of their required courses.
I plan to give myself three weeks to prepare for this test. The DSST: The Official Test Preparation Guide has about a 20 page study guide for this exam to include 20 question pretest and 60 question post test. Do you think this guide and IC would be enough to pass? I scored 66 on Principles of Management last month. Just curious if there is any overlap?

Lots of overlap. I went through IC flashcards and the Petersons guide, and easily scored an A.

Great news on the overlap content, I am taking this exam in 3-weeks too.
I presume there is overlap on the Organizational Behavior exam from Princ of Mgmt, Princ of Spvsn, and Human Resource Mgmt too; I've taken/passed all three in the last 2-months.

Spent a weekend reviewing IC and got an A on the Dantes version, three weeks later without added study and I scored a C on the ECE version.

There is much overlap on the exam. I have not take the DSST Organizational Behavior, but I have taken the ECE Organizational Behavior exam. I used the book, "Essentials of Organizational Behavior, 8th Edition." It is written by Stephen Robbins. Great book. It serves as a review book for those in MBA programs. It is roughly 230 or so pages and covers all topics.
