HELP! I was planning on taking the MIS DSST exam tomorrow. I've studied all of the instant cert questions many times. I took the Peterson's practice test and scored 57% the first time and a 46% the second time. I also took the short test on the dsst study guide and scored 66%. I also looked over the answers to the practice tests.
Am I ready? What should I do for further study??

I would say you need to get your petersons above 60%. Unfortunately I can't help you with study sources as I took the test cold. DSST does offer a practice for $5 that will give you 50 questions and a pretty good idea as to what the real test will be like. This score will be more indicative of your actual outcome.

I agree with stretcharmy - the DSST practice exam is worth it.

I would study a little longer before attempting the exam. Better to invest a week or more in study now than need wait months for a retake if not properly prepared. Just my opinion.
I also advise purchasing a practice test. FYI, you have to register again for the practice tests, it's a different section of the website.
Do you have a textbook handy to review? I would download a copy of the exam factsheet and read over the sections listed. You don't have to memorize, just digest the information.. Then, if a question is thrown at you that you did not study in depth at least you will have some recall on the topic. Hopefully just enough to help with the process of elimination.
