Whats going on? There is very little activity here lately. Lot more people not passing exams since the exams have been updated.
It appears that since the DSST exams have been updated people are afraid to take them.
Perhaps things will pick back up when InstantCert updates their flash cards to reflect the new material on the rest of the exams things will pick up.
Even the specific exam feedback section has lots of postings from 2006!
Perhaps there should be a seperate folder for NEW EXAMS.

I still use instantcert. The test I'm prepping for doesn't have any flash cards (American Lit) but after I pass that test I'll be getting ready for either Educational Psychology or Western Civilization I. I'm 4/4 so I can't complain about my pass rate.
Cleps:
Introduction Business Law 65
Principles of Management 70
Principles of Marketing 71
A&I Literature 68
American Lit 59
Educational Psychology 68
Social sciences & history 65
Western Civilization I 64
What lies before us and what lies behind us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

There does seem to be an echo in here.

My daughter is still using instant cert. My son will be starting to do so later in the year. They are both enrolled.
I notice that the DANTES exams are being updated which is great since we finally seem to be getting a DSST writing center a few hours away.

I took the Substance Abuse Dante today, a friend of mine took it also. She made a 345, I made a 399...400 is passing. I just sent an email to Steve about updating the material. I used this site and 5 other sites in studying for this test. I thought I would score in the 70-80% range. How wrong I was. The information on the test given today was indicative of about 50% of the material covered. I'm really disappointed after putting in so much effort and time, only to find out that the materials being studied aren't covering the materials on the tests. I wonder how the individuals from the various sites find out what to supply to their clients in terms of training information. I'd like to be able to see what I missed on the test and have some understanding of it. However, I can't be too disappointed even though it's a good bit of money down the drain. I did my best with the information I had been given, so there's no sense in dwelling on it.

It's easy to forget though that not everone who uses Instacert posts on this forum. I have two friends who use instacert (and despite me beating them over the head! LOL) they don't use this forum -- yet. However they are passing exams with instacert.

I still use Instantcert, but it is just taking me forever to learn Statistics. I tried using Aleks, but I don't really like it. Any sort of math takes me awhile, but I will definitely update whenever I take it! I'm a math phobic person.
