There were certain concepts that were just not registering no matter how hard or long I tried, so I went back to the DSST breakdown sheet for the subject material and really broke down exactly what was on the exam.
What was giving me fits, made up less than 30% of the DSST breakdown. So I stopped trying to master subject material that I wasn't getting and focused on the material that I could handle. I did this for a couple of days, went and took the test and passed with a 61/80.
It worked for me. Good luck!!!
Good advice...changing tactics....again! I stink at this organization and study thing. Thanks, Geezer.
