Hi. Did anyone find that they did better on the actual DSST exams in comparison to the Peterson practice exams?
Are Peterson's Practice tests harder than the DSST tests themselves?

In general, I'd say they are a bit harder.

I used Peterson's for each of the CLEP exams listed in my signature. I found them to be tremendously easy, much more so than the actual tests.

Some have been more difficult, most for me have just been worded much different. They offer a decent gauge to your readiness, this is why you will see on the forums folks say if you can get passing scores on the petersons 60%+ you will more than likely pass the dsst/clep exam.

Ok, thanks. I ask because I'm going to take the DSST Human/Cultural Geography exam in about a month or two. I took the Peterson practice exams and scored an average of 50. However, I took them with only a week or two of sporadic studying. I still have alot more time to study so I assume I should be ok. We'll see....

Yes! I found the Peterson to be much harder than the actual test.
