I'm about to take my last DSST (thank goodness)--Environment and Humanity:Race to Save the Planet.
I'm taking it this week, but I haven't really worked as hard as I usually do to study for an exam. Is it as easy as Here's to Your Health? Harder?
I would greatly appreciate any advice/tips anyone can give about this exam.

I can't compare it to HTYH since I didn't take that one, but I can say it was fairly easy, and a couple days of running through the instantcert cards should be more than enough to pass it.

I'm like KyleH, I've haven't taken HTYH either, but I did take Race to Save the Planet - It's a common sense test. The IC cards are certainly enough to pass - Also check the feedback - Very helpful! I started studying on Sat. and passed on Tuesday with 70 - Study-wise - That's a record for me.
Good luck!

I put the least amount of effort into this test of any I've taken. I have a background in agriculture so the nutrient cycling material was not new material for me. All the other relevant stuff is in the specific feedback and flash cards. The Peterson tests are a good barometer of readiness, if you are above 60% you will pass. I did not look at any questions a second time and finished this exam in half an hour, which was also a first for me.

If the cards are any indication, just pretend you're the most radical person there is in the Greenpeace organization and answer from her point of view.
Wow. Are any of the other tests so blatantly skewed?
