Best Textbook to study for Fund. of Counseling DSST

[creative]

I am not sure there is a "best" textbook to use for this test. On the DSST fact sheet they mention about a dozen books to choose from- go figure :confused: . I used the textbook "Counseling, Theory and Practice" by Ricky George/Theresa Cristiani. I used an older edition that I got used on Amazon for a decent price... But I do feel the book gave a good overview of the topics. I also used Wiki, IC flashcards. I took this test last week and found it to be vague and very broad. There were questions on there that I think they ask to see how "well rounded" a psych student you are. :p I think the more tests that you take in Psychology the better you will do, because they do seem to overlap. I would definitely recommend looking at different sources to supplement your studying for this test. Look up stuff on Wiki, psychology websites, I also looked at stuff on YouTube showing the different counseling styles/theories in action etc. It will help to supplement as much as you can-- or it least it helped me to do that. I hope this helps!
