I am taking my first DSST tomorrow and wanted to verify the number of questions on this exam and the score needed to pass. I have only taken two CLEP exams and am not sure if scores are the same.

I am taking my first DSST exam tomorrow AM - Western Europe since 1945 and was wondering how many questions are on the exam as well as how the scoring is done. I know with most CLEP exams, you need a 50 to pass. Is that the same with the DSST exams?

From memory, I believe there were between 86-90something questions on my exams. I believe it varies depending on the subject.
