Has anyone taken these exams?
#1
Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone has taken Here's to your health and substance awareness DSST exams. If so, how difficult did you find the exam to be? Do you have any advice on taking the exam?

Thank you in advance

Read through the specific exam feedback section and you will find all the info you need for these exams. The flashcards should be enough for a pass on these exams. Good luck!

heres to your health wasn't that hard. The first time i took it i missed it by 1 question.And this was shooting from the Hip. Then a year months later i took it again and passed with a 414. The second time i studied on the petersons. The test is easy if you study a little bit. I studied because the military no longer paid for retakes , I was lucky to have them pay for my htyh Twice. I am taking the substance on thursday. I will let you know how it goes

I took substance abuse. I would say that if you have a good understanding of the IC cards and study the guides posted by others in the exam specific section you will be fine.

Substance abuse wasn't very difficult but shouldn't be taken cold. A few days with IC cards will get you a pass.
