I got my results right away the same as any dantes exam taken by computer. If you did not maybe there was some sort of error? Try logging on to see if the score is on your account.

Thanks. Haha, yes it is quite an old post. Bricabrac pointed it out to me. It's been tough studying for this test because there's not as many resources or feedback as the others I have taken.

I used the HG&D flashcards, but they didn't really line up with Lifespan Developmental Psychology. I think I got a 64.....all I know is that I passed with plenty of room. If you have already taken several other psychology tests or courses, you should be fine.

Sure blame it on me, but I didn't say to post :p... I just sent you to the topics feedback thread for study material! PM me your email, I just got on my old computer and have some stuff I can send you.
Here is a textbook companion site I had bookmarked

Just passed with a 60! The beginning of the exam seemed so easy I thought it was a joke. I almost thought I could stop after answering 50 pretty easy questions. Then it started getting tricky. Unfortunately, as you'll discover in your studies, my short term memory of the test has already been erased. Actually, most of what was on the exam is what I studied in the last 48 hours and that was the REA HG&D practice exams, random online practice exams, About.com Psychology info & quizzes, Spark Notes and, most of all, the Snazzlefrag's notes are on point!
Next up is Foundations of Ed for me. If anyone has tips on that one I'd be most grateful.
Study, relax and you'll do fine.

I was looking for the text companion site for a tester and found my old link is no longer active. The text publisher has changed. The updated info is below.
Edition referred to at the DSST website
(via istudysmart link=that site is not cheap!):
Lifespan Development 12e (2009). John W. Santrock. ISBN: 0073370215
The
13e (2011) is also available. ISBN: 0073532096. Not sure if you will find any major differences but linked it just in case. Didn't bother to locate the 14e; too far removed from DSST referenced text.
Also, here's the
quizlet link. Good stuff!
Must read: [URL="http://www.free-clep-prep.com/support-files/snazzlefrags-lifespan-development-psychology-dsst-study-notes.pdf"]Snazzlefrag's study guide

I have a question: who's getting scores of 0-100 on this exam? I'm kinda confused.
I thought it was graded out of 400, and how does THAT work?
