DSST Organizational Behavior
#1
Hey,

I need to find some study materials for this test. I need to take it within the next ten days.
I'm new to DSST's, the only one I have taken is P of Supervision and that was piggybacked off of my studying for the CLEP P of Management.
I'm kind of lost as to where you get materials for these tests...does anyone have any suggestions for books or free internet sources?
I am not signed up for IC so any suggestions besides that would be awesome. Also, is this a very difficult exam?
I have just taken all the management stuff and psych and I heard that this exam overlaps a lot with those.

Other than the brief overview in the DSST book, I prepared by reading a (very cheap) used textbook, Essentials of Organizational Behavior by Stephen P. Robbins, and by taking the practice quizzes here: Organizational Behavior 11/e It's not a difficult test, IMO, if you've read up on the theories; having already done Psych and Sociology helped, too - lots of overlap.

Organizational Behavior | Glossary
The glossary was arranged by related terms so I could compare differences and link people and theories. I also used the DSST practice test in the guide book (60 questions). I got 45 out of 60 the night before the test. There were many similar questions on the actual test.

I think you should sign up for IC... They have everything you need to pass this exam.

No, it's not too hard; it's one of the easier tests, IMO.

Well I want to sign up for IC (I used to be) but honestly I can't afford it right now:nopity:

Hopefully when things pick back up I'll get back on board.

Does IC have stuff for all the DSST's?

Back when I was signed up I was just doing CLEP's

I am not finding any material on the Petersons site for DSST. Did they stop putting it out? Also, I am unable to find a Online Practice Test on Prometric or on Petersons for Organizational Behavior. Any help?

Here is the link I use for the petersons site Home. The new release of the study guide is now available on the website and I just noticed Org Behavior is not included in the new version.:confused: If you PM me your email, I still have the older version that includes this exam and will send it to you.

The practice tests are still available on the website. Looking at the top red bar highlight college success tools then scroll down to dsst prep and click.
