Publius Wrote:You'r welcome, it's for DSST. To my knowledge CLEP doesn't release much info (i.e. percent needed to pass, etc.), at least not nearly as much as DSST. I actually got it directly from Prometric (DSST's) website DSST | Get College Credit.
Here's the PDF: DSST Exam Scoring 101
They only list the exams that have been refreshed but other they also list a Technical Data Sheet for all their exams.
Just to clarify, that's the percent of correct answers needed to pass and not the passing rate, right?

It never hurts to study more but that isn't a bad score. If you are still talking about DSST Supervision then my advice is to schedule an appointment and study a little bit more just before you take the test.
Good Luck!

It's pretty easy if know about computers. I looked at
Introduction to Computing DSST Study Guide - Free-Clep-Prep.com at passed just fine.
It has a lot of overlap with CLEP Info Systems (watch whether your school takes both, TESC didn't but my CC did) and has a passing score of 59-63% depending on the test version given to you.
