Some people on this forum have been saying that when they took the Management Information Systems DSST recently they were forced to take a pencil and paper version and there has been a new scoring system implemented. On the DSST web site there are actually two different fact sheets, one for computer based and one for pencil and paper versions. On the list, next to the test titles, they both have written 3BU for 3 upper level credits. However, when you look at the fact sheets under the credit recommendations section on the pencil and paper version it says lower level. This is really worrying me because I need this test to finish a depth requirement at Excelsior in Computers, I just need one more upper level class. Also, the pencil and paper fact sheet has a copyright of 2008 while the computer based one is from 2007. Whats going on?

I don't know, but if I were you, I would get written confirmation from Excelsior that the DSST MIS exam is still valid for upper-level credit.
