    I am filling my nine credits of business electives with: DSST Introduction to Business, Principles of Supervision (because I also have to take CLEP Priciples of Managament, and have heard they overlap), and Managament Information Systems (because on the Dantes website the military pass rate was listed as 74%. Though I am not in the military that still looked promising. Below is the website if anyone is interested. I am NOT suggesting we be discouraged or not take an exam because a low pass rate is listed. I only used this because I had to choose something, and this looked as good as anything.

    DANTES SUBJECT STANDARDIZED TESTS (DSST) VOLUME PASS RATE FY07

    I am discussing my options with my advisor and this DSST exam you guys are mentioning doesn't show up on Instacert's list of exams. Is it the College Mathmatics CLEP you are talking about?

    No, the College Math is a six credit CLEP. The Business Math is a three credit DSST.

    ok, thanks for the clarification. I don't see the Business Math in the DSST List for Instacert. I guess they don't provide prep materials for this exam?
