    Default Free DSST Tests?

    Does anybody know where you can get free DSST tests? Peterson only has 4 that I can find and I was wondering if they had more somewhere. I like taking the free tests to see which one I should do next and I don't want to pay the $5 x how many tests I need to go through to find the one that I should do.

    P.S. What's the easiest DSST?

    Okay, don't everybody respond at once. Is the principles of supervision DSST pretty simple?

    I think the Heres to Your Health, and Personal Finance are pretty easy.

    Smile Techical Writing DSST

    Nick,

    In my opinion, the Technical Writing DSST is very easy. I did study for it, but honestly, I think I could have passed even if I didn't.

    Would that be considered duplicate credit with the English composition CLEP? It probably wouldn't but just checking. What did you use to study for it?

    For me, it was an additional writing course under the GER. The flashcards and the feedback here are all you need. There are a couple of link under the feedback section that were helpful.

    I passed Principles of Supervision without any study and some very modest previous knowledge of psychology. Common sense goes a long way on that one.

    There's a string of related business/social science exams - study for one, and you've absorbed a lot of materials for some others.

    Study for the Intro to Psych and Intro to Management CLEPs. Once you have that material down cold, you will need relatively little study to pass Supervision, Intro to Business, HRM, Org Behavior, and Marketing. I'm prepping for DSST Foundations of Education, and am seeing some stuff that was covered in org behavior! Psychological theories keep coming up again and again. Wish I had studied it first, oh well.
