What did you get on the test?
I'm studying for this one as well, and like others have said, this one sort of scares me. It's not really hard yet, but the equations are going to be tough when I start doing them. Also, what is a BA II calculator? Where can I get one? Why do I need it? Do they provide you with on at the testing center?
Another thing that I just thought of: about what percentage of the test would you guys say is composed of questions requiring equations? 30%? 50%? 70%? 90%? 100%?(Hopefully not! :-0)
Thanks, Jade

Guys! Please! I really would like some answers here. And is it true that Prometric doesn't have a pt for this?

This test was one of 3 DSST's that I didn't get to and really the only test that frightened me. I opted for the Penn Foster course this week and finished in a day and a half. No regrets

No proctor, you just download the final exam PDF and upload it when you are finished. You can download the lesson exams prior to taking them also.

I do have a subscription, but I always like for the tests to be my main readiness factor. I use the Specific Exam Feedback section as part of my studying before the PTs. I have been reading it, though. Thanks!

Any chance you know how there Strategic Management course is? Is it similar? Also it is my understanding I have to set it up over the phone and not through their website, am I correct about this?

Are the equations that you learn in the last set of flashcards on IC enough to get you through the test? Are they the only equations that you'll need?
