    Question Easiest DSST Dantes Exams

    Just a quick question....I know it was discussed a while ago, but I can't seem to find it.

    What would you say are the easiest DSST exams that take the lest preparation time (like 1 day of IC studying... )

    I remember someone mentioning Here's to Your Health being that easy....and also Prin. of Supervision?

    In addition to those two I would say that intro to business is also a very easy exam. I passed it with 2 hours of study max.

    Based on the format of your question I would say Principles of Supervision.

    Thanks for the info everyone. I just took Prin. of Supervision and got a 58 in 45 minutes. It was much harder than I though. I think I got a different version because there were so many questions not covered by the study preps I used. Plus it was 86 questions, not the typicsl 101.

    Tomorrow I'm taking Intro to Business and World Religion or Ethics....

    Which requires less prep, Ethics or World Religions??

    computer repair but that stuff had nothing to do with it. i took it the same day as intro to computers because i thought they would be similar, MIS had little overlapping content.
