Hello all,eeya:
Iâm scheduled to take the Fundamentals of Cyber Security DSST exam tomorrow!
My background:
Iâm currently working on my Bachelors at APUS (American Public University System). Iâm around the 70% threshold, with the bulk of the remaining credits being courses that I can CLEP/DSST out of. I have a cyber security background so I figured it would only make sense to knock this one out first.
To be clear, Iâve not studied for this exam. Last night I purchased (2) official DSST practice tests consisting of 25 questions each and took a shot at them. I scored a 68% on practice test #1 and a 71% on practice test #2. After being pleased with the results, I spent an additional $20 on the Peterson practice exams (3 practice exams were included). I took the Petersons practice exam #1 which consisted of 100 multiple choice questions within a two hour time limit and scored a 77%. Iâve always heard that the Peterson exams were more difficult that the real exam but IMO the questions were rather easy. With this in mind, Iâve scheduled the exam for tomorrow and Iâll share my results/feedback.
Thanks for reading!
