Taking Exams

[wellsar]

I am new to this website and just took my first DSST for Principles of Supervision. I need to take 4 more tests to graduate in May. I am taking Personal Finance, Substance Abuse, Org Beh and another I have not chosen. Do I need to use study guides other that IC or will there be enough information give on the study guides here?

Please see specific feeback on each exam and you should be able to get that information from there

This has worked will for the CLEP tests I have taken.

I study IC for the test and don't sit for it unless I know the flash cards 95-100%

This has been enough to "pass" all the tests so far.

I review the specific feedback section for the test and take notes, especially on the subjects that numerous members make the same comment. I look them up on wikepedia, a second source like like an AP prep book, study guide, text book, etc.

I take a practice test if I still don't feel ready. Prince Review, Peterson's, College Board, etc.

I like making sure I am well prepared before I sit the test. Many here would probably consider that a little overkill, particularly on the CLEP tests that are pass fail. I intend to follow the same strategy through the DSSTs and ECE exams.

IC & Specific Feedback = Pass
