Taking my first test today!! Nervous!!
#1
I take my first DSST test today (Principles of Supervision). I'm super nervous. I have mostly reviewed IC flashcards the past few days and went over some notes others have posted and I major in health care administration which is mostly business related. However, I'm super nervous!! Any last minute advice?

Relax!!! Mark questions for review if you don't know them right away. It always takes me a few questions to 'settle into' a test and often times, questions that seem confusing at first make perfect sense when you come back to them.

Good luck!!!! Smile

Super ditto Burbuja's advice. I just came back from clep Intro to Psychology and I probably marked 40% for review. And just as Burbuja said, once you get warmed up, the information seems to flow out and those questions seem a whole lot easier to understand.
Don't leave any answers blank your first time thru, just in case you run out of time.
Good luck!

Blazweshater...I am very new to this site and am struggling to navigate the posting forum. I only have 6 courses to complete to receive my BSN from TESC. I cannot take my last nursing courses until I have completed my English and Hummanities requirements.....do you have any suggestions on the best approach?
