Just got back from taking DSST Organizational Behavior. Also placed my so-called update "Specific Exam Feedback ONLY" section. lol
I think my mistake was being overconfident because I scored a 66 on the Principles of Management CLEP and only used IC study guide and DSST official guide. I noticed you don't see the same type of study material like REA guides with practice exams and Petersons. For DSST, they have very little practice exams. 10 to 20 questions going in, I was already thinking what type of classes to take this summer and fall and not staying focused on the exam. I scored a 49 and was surprised.
If I had to do this over again, I would have checked out a book at the library to make sure I completely understood the subject because of the vague questions.
In regards to my next course of action, I'm thinking after my current classes are done, I plan to take both Macro and Micro CLEP exams. In addition to IC and REA's, what are your opinions on the Barron's Easy Way guides? At one end, I don't want to read a 700 page text book, but I also don't want to use only REA's. I noticed Barron's Easy Way books are 330 to 360 pages.
Macroeconomics The Easy Way
Microeconomics The Easy Way
As for DSST Ethics and Principles of Finance, I think I'll stick with classes for those. hilarious
