Dsst Prin.of Supervision or Clep Prin. of Mgt.
#1
Hi,

Which is easier, the Dsst Principles of Supervision or Clep Principles of Management? I can take either one to receive credit for a management class, but I'm not sure which one to try.

Any advice is welcomed!

For me, I found the CLEP for Management easier.
DSST:
Here's To Your Health- 56 (Cold) Big Grin
Principles of Supervision-60

CLEP:
Principles of Management- 65
Marketing- 53 :eek:
Sociology- 63

ASBA 3/09

I agree with above statement. IMO princ of management was definitely the easier of the two.

I think they are about the same, but if you can pass the Management one, you'll definitely pass the Supervision one.

Ditto on Principles of Mgmt. DSSTs have an annoying tendency to ask vague questions, so I prefer CLEPs anyway. Big Grin

I just took the Princ of Supervision today--cold cocked it, made a 59, and was done in about 30 minutes... If you've been in the business world at all it should not be a significant problem for you.
