Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone. I'm just a little chicken to take the DSST Ethics exam because I think I need more prep time. I want to watch the 10hr online video
Resource: Ethics in America (but that's just so time consuming

)...

Lol, I know. Funny thing is that I got to the center 50 minutes late (arount 1:50pm) and I had to convince the test center lady to allow me to take it anyway. She was like, "I have a PC technician coming at 3pm so you can't take it today." I simply told her that it should be a quick exam and that I'm sure I'll be done by 3pm. She eventually let me take it and I was out by 2:25pm!
