Management Information Systems DSST
#1
Hello all, quick question...I'm studying for the MIS DSST. Probably gonna take it on Weds. Are the Petersons tests a good gauge for knowledge of the info? I've taken 2 so far and have scored a 43% and 37%. The Petersons tests seem way hard. Thanks for the help!

As far as that particular test goes I am not sure, but for the intro to computing and the information systems and computer apps tests the petersons was a pretty helpful judge. The clep info systems i scored a 57 and on the petersons practice tests I made an average of 60 or higher. On the intro to computing i made a 432 and was making an average of 70 on the practice tests. If you are making those scores you might need a little more work to pass. Are you using any other study material. I know the intro to computing dsst seemed alot harder than the info systems but i wound up getting around the same score. Good luck, hope you do well.

I'm using the DSST flash cards from instant cert. I took the intro to computing DSST without studying and got a 422. I'll go over the flash cards a few more times and see how it goes.

Congrats! Just curious. What's your computer background? It's a test I'll have to take, and I want to guage how easy/tough it is, in part, by testers' backgrounds.

Thanks everyone! I don't have much of a computer background at all. I passed the Intro to Computing clep a while back. Also, at work they tried to get everyone who was on our computer program an A+ cert. I started but never finished. Being in the military, trying to finish a million classes, I just didn't have the time to finish it. Instacert and the Peterson's tests are more than enough to pass this test.
