    Default How hard is General Anthropology DSST compared to the other tests?

    On a scale of 1-10, 10 being hardest, how hard is General Anthropology DSST?

    What other test would you compare it to in terms of how hard it is?

    Many thanks!

    I found DSST General Anthropology to be very similar to the CLEP Intro to Sociology exam in both style and content. I think the Sociology exam was a little easier; but not by much. If CLEP Intro to Sociology was a 4/10, I would say DSST General Anthropology would be a 5/10.

    I would recommend this exam to anyone who did well on the Sociology exam, and/or anyone who needs some extra Social Studies credits.

    Hope that helps,
