Hi guys, I am new to the forum, and I'd first like to thank everyone who contributes. I have lurked for a few months while I get all of the low hangin fruit that I can.
My questions is about the business ethics DSST. I have taken two practice exams on free-clep-prep, and have scored 80%, and 87% respectively. I also took them a couple days apart.
Do you guys think this test is that difficult? free-clep-prep says it is but it seemed rather easy, and I am just curious if the practice exams on that site are remotely close to the real deal.
Any insight would be appreciated!

I can't speak to the practice tests on the site, but I went over the notes posted on the Feedback section of the forums for 3 days or so, took the exam, and passed it without breaking a sweat (must be a paying member of InstantCert to access).
There are a few specific cases (such as what happened to Martha Stewart), and some weird things as well (I remember a question on the ozone layer, and I couldn't think of an answer for it as the news actually said something positive about it for a change), but what struck me the most about the exam is how it took a few things here and there from all of the main business topics (e.g. Economics, Accounting, Finance, Management, Marketing, etc), but never got in-depth, like a more advanced Introduction to Business.
If you are familiar with the lower level courses, this one isn't too difficult, and was a lot more fun to go through than Ethics in America.

If you are getting that on the practice tests you should do fine.

Also, someday maybe a MS in Forensic Psychology, just for fun. Oh, and a BS in Animal Behavior. And, maybe when I'm 85 a PhD in something fun.

Thanks guys. I just was shocked at how easy the questions were with no study. I appreciate the feedback!
