DSST - Management Information Systems (Practice Test?)

[dhugar]

Does anyone know where I can get a practice test for DSST - Management Information Systems? I've been using Petersons for CLEP.

Thanks.

There's Peterson's for this one too. And Prometric has some for 5 bucks at getcollegecredit.com. And http://www.collegetestprepguide.com/ has one in their study guide. Separately that one costs 10 bucks, which might be more than you want to spend, but they sell the whole guide with 10 different subjects in it for 25 bucks. If you're planning on taking some of the other exams listed, it might be worth it for you.

I think the Prometric one reflects the difficulty of the actual test the best, for what it's worth. Petersons are pretty crazy for this one.

If you don't have industry experience, I would recommend reading the textbook that the exam references.
I did this for the organizational behavior test and learned a lot.

Thanks guys. I do have industry experience. I am a VP of IT, and CIO. I was going to try to take the test cold but wanted to see how I scored on a practice test first.

Also, do a search of the site. They were offering free sample tests through the end of November. Someone in the forum provided a password. Good luck.
