Thank you to the individual who posted information in thread #103 regarding the more recent MacGraw-Hill Core Concepts in Health website. The glossary, multiple choice tests, and PowerPoint slides were valuable to my study for this exam. I only wish I had discovered them sooner! The Peterson's practice exams were also extremely beneficial.
This was my first and only Dantes exam. I passed the Heres to Your Health with a score of 472 this afternoon.
I highly recommend reading the questions and answers carefully. The wording of some questions is awkward, however careful attention will permit one to reason through any questions where the clear answer is not obvious.
Good luck to all!

Thanks!

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.

This post by CooperAlex2004 explains the scoring for DSST exams. The chart at the bottom of the second page (in the first link) says 59-63% correct is passing for the Health exam.

Thank you, NAP!
The scoring information is good to know. Thanks for sharing! I am going to pass the information along to my university. When I began inquiring about the Dantes, they did not have anyone who could answer my questions regarding the scoring. Hopefully it will provide them with an understanding and they will also share the information with future test takers.
Best of luck to all in your future testing and endeavors!

Would there be any other advice or tips you could give for the Dantes Heres to your health test? I am taking it in two weeks. Thank you
