    Default 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.

    The guide and IC will be enough. I also agree with barbara and there is lots of overlap with the management exam.

    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.

    That's good to know. I want to make sure I have realistic expectations that test is doable after 3 weeks.

    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.
