I am taking this test tomorrow and trying not to stress. I have been studying for a few months from time to time and seriously studing the past 2 weeks. I get 100%s on free clep prep and got 71% for half effort IC. I just cant remember the exact names for some of the minor people and parts of the asian religions. Gonna go over them a few more times tonight and I hope its enough cuz I am going to be really sick of this stuff very soon!!!!!!! I have to pass because my enrollment is up at TESC end of May and wont be able to take it again before then!!!!!! this is my last thing before I graduate.

It was not a tough test. Go over the test strategy posted earlier in the thread. It helped me.

I took this one, today, and passed with a 473. I think it was one of the "easier" ones...everyone is different, but if you are doing well on Instant Cert, I feel you will do just fine on the real thing. (According to my test!)
I had only studied Instant Cert, so I was afraid I wasn't prepared enough. But...I was and finished the test in 30 minutes! I was really pleased that the information I had studied was on the test! Have you tried the practice test on the official DSST site? (It's five dollars...

Hope things go well! Prayers!
Many blessings!

Calm down; you're doing fine. It looks like 60% on the practice test is a good score. Take some time to learn about the answers you got wrong.
According to the DSST scoring guide, you will only need 46-50% correct to pass. (See first link in this post, chart on bottom of second page):

Congratulations TayTay! Your success and experience is a good sign for Chellec, too.

Well...that's 60%!
I got 33/50 and got a high score on the real thing. I thought the real test was easier than the practice test...again, everyone is different.
