Information Systems
#1
Studying for the Information Systems test right now, trying to decide whether to take the CLEP or DSST one. Any insight?
I've read somewhere that DSST are in general harder than CLEP, don't know how true that is

Where are you trying to transfer to?

If you're looking for easiest, I'd assume (without having taken it myself) that Study.com's Information Systems would be very easy (their study material seems to make sure that you're more than prepared -- in my experience) if your institution accepts it. TESU, for example, accepts it for the same course as the CLEP/DSST exams. Your institution may not accept it at all.

I have so many good things to say about Study.com that I should start asking for them to pay me.

I already checked and both CLEP or DSST would transfer, study.com not at least not that subject. It's for electives

DSST Intro to Computing is easier than the CLEP. DSST doesn't have an introductory information systems test. They just have management information systems.

I took the DSST Into to Computers test cold, I thought it was easy. And I'm not a "computer person" per se. Just computer literate. I also took the Computer TECEP exam cold and passed that as well. Easy as well.
