Old Test Versions?

[robe4658]

Hello. I'm currently deployed, and I picked up the listing of DANTES tests offered here on base. It also shows the passing scores required for each, most are 48, 47, etc. When I pass my DANTES taken here and try to transfer it to TESC or COSC, will they accept it still even if it's the old scoring/test?

I plan to take Intro to Business first. Required passing score typically, 400. Required score to transfer, 400. Required score to pass it here on base, 46.

The TESC DSST page lists a number of the tests with the old score format you are describing.
DANTES

The intro business is listed as 400 though on the TESC website. To my knowledge the big 3 generally accept whatever dantes defines as a passing score. Maybe someone knows more about this but I would expect that if you take the test and get a passing score, even if its some older scoring method of the test, the big 3 will know how to handle it and will accept it. Good luck.

A few years ago, it was okay for Excelsior and even graded credit. Hopefully, it is still okay for the other 2 colleges. I'm not aware of any of our military members having issues with this. Here is my experience:
