Questions about Human/Cultural Geography DSST
#1
I am considering taking this DSST exam for my TESU Diversity requirement. since I am currently taking some Geography courses at UL and MA credit.

Does anyone know what kind of questions are on this test, and what I should expect from personal experience?

I also see that this is offered on Study.com and wonder if I should consider this option.

Vetvso, what's LTI? I noticed that in your signature but what does it stand for?
I tried doing a search, but those three characters doesn't come up with anything.

Language Testing International but there is also another name of ACTFL
Language Testing International | Validated and Certified Language Proficiency Testing in 100+ Languages

Also my signature is fairly old so I may be using terms that I picked up even before I registered in 2010.

A little late to the party but putting my two cents in anyway.

I took this test. Did not pass. Mostly that was because it wasn't so much about geography. It was more economics and business. I got *maybe* a handful of questions about different terrains, (tundras, forests, etc.). I was prepared for geography and geological formations and weather and atmospheres...but I didn't run into much of that at all.

I was taking this test because I was halfway through a geography class at TESU and the teacher had sorely NOT prepared us for the midterm. It was going to be a strain to get a passing grade so I thought, hey, take a DSST for all the knowledge you already have under your belt instead!
I reviewed some other geography material going into this but it didn't help much and I seriously suck as business and economics so that's why I didn't pass. I took Race to Save the Planet instead and passed that one. I wish I could give examples of questions on this test but I took it last year some time so details are fuzzy.

Thank you, and this information may be helpful for me to make the decision. I am pretty good at DSST straighterline business tests, and have passed all I took with no studying at all. Economics is not my strong area but I am taking a GEOG class now. Hopefully someone may have the additional information to add since I may take this this week.

Looking at your signature, the SL & DSST exams you took are considered the very easiest ones to take. So I wouldn't count on that as your measuring stick for future choices.

Also, I noticed that you took College Algebra, College Algebra with Trig, and PreCalculus - 2 of which overlap. So you will only get 9cr for those at TESU. If you want 3 additional credits, you need to take Intermediate Algebra.
