Took my first DSST and passed BUT.... - methibosheth - 07-12-2011

Yesterday I ended my long testing break with DSST's Principles of
Supervision. I passed with a 445, but something interesting happened. When I
selected the exam, I noticed that some of the exams (Principles of
Supervision included) stated in their title that the exam was "refreshed".
When I took the test, much of the content was completely unlike the
Peterson's practice tests or InstantCert study material. The content
seemed like a 50/50 split between what I had studied for and content from
CLEP's Principles of Management (which I have taken and thankfully gave
me something to fall back on). In other words, it seems that Peterson's and
InstantCert our outdated with regard to the few DSST's that are
"refreshed".
When I finished, I was allowed to leave feedback for the exam content
manager, which I did. Has anyone else experienced this?

I think its the "luck of the draw" as it relates to exam content. I took a few "refreshed" exams, some were similar to practice questions, some weren't. The general concepts were the same though, I think that's what matters most.

I will be taking this test tomorrow; I'll postback my findings.
