Back in August I took DSST Foundations of Education using only Instantcert for study. I felt confident that I had done well on this test. When I received my test results I was shocked to find out I failed this test. And not by a little My report said I scored a 29. I up to that point had taken 8 clep and 3 dantes test passing all since last December. I thought I had done well on this exam and was at a loss on how I could obtain such a low score. I put it behind me figuring I either transposed answers on my answer sheet or was completely clueless to this subject matter. I continued testing taking 3 more cleps since that time. Guess what I received in the mail? A correction to my score for the Foundations of ED exam, I did not score a 29 but a 67. I logged onto the COSC site to check my transcript and status report and there it showed the new score with a letter grade of A and 3 more credits!! giving me a total of 102.7 credits. Finally over the 100 credit hour mark. So now that makes me 15 for 15 on testing 11 Cleps and 4 Dantes. I would urge anyone if you failed a Dantes test and you feel something isn't right to follow-up. I didn't and got lucky that they caught and corrected their error. I remember seeing a post either this or on another forum of someone with a similar experience. Anyone else have this happen?
PS Instantcert is more than enough to prepare for this test.
