I'm glad I used both sources, but that is my study method. There are some threads in the past that you may want to go back and look at. Lots of input about the exam.


This is why I find this board to be so helpful. It allows for various viewpoints to be expressed and enables the reader come to their own conclusions.

I found the Official DSST Study Guide (book) to be fantastic for Principles of Supervision, Intro to Business, and Human Resource Management. But for the Ethics exam, I guess I just felt that it didn't go into enough detail about each ethical theory.

I read through the Ethics chapter twice and still felt somewhat uncomfortable with how much I knew. It was only when I started going through Instantcert's Ethics section that I was able to gain some clarity.

Having said that, I did use both sources and, in the end, I felt pretty confident going into the exam.

I have earned 12 credits so far using the DSST Guide (alongside Instantcert)...so it is definitely worth buying if anyone here hasn't bought it already.

I paid about $13.00 for it on Amazon.com and it provides study material and mock exams for half a dozen or so of their most popular exams. Well worth the cost!

As Sammy mentioned, you can also download it free of charge from the following US Air Force web site:

Take care all,
