Hi All!
I just took the $5 practice test for the DSST Here's To Your Health.
I got a 31 out of 50. I am too dense to connect what everyone has said about all the scoring data into what this would mean on the exam. My school says I need a 426+....
THANKS!!!!

31/50 is 62%. I'm not sure how the $5 official PT compares to the real DSST, but I have heard this test is not too hard. Though I do like to have my PT scores around or above 70% before I'm really comfortable testing. Maybe some more study?

Hello, The practice test is graded on a different scale then the actual test. The min to pass in 400 for this test as far as I am aware. Also, just took this one last week. Take a look at my exam feedback as I wrote a few things to be aware of. Also, if you haven't done so yet download janesa notes that are on that thread as well. Good luck!

There is a link on this forum to a pdf that explains the scoring. To pass health with a score of 400, it says you need 59-63% correct. Your school apparently requires a higher score than other schools do.
