Intro to Business DSST scoring confusion

THey don't tell you that info. DSST has info posted based on the old scoring system on how many question you need, but the none for the new system. For most exams, if you get anywhere from 50-60% correct, you most likely passed. This of course is not canon and it depends on exam title and the specific exam form you get.
This type of question has been asked and answered several times. Try doing a search above and you'll save yourself some time. Also, when you take a CLEP/DSST, don't forget to pass on any advice/pointers. Good luck.
CLEPS Passed: 10 DSST Passed: 11 TECEPS: 1
PrLoko-isms Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently. Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end. Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example. Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work. Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person. 
Actually, they do give this info for the refreshed DSST exams. Intro to Business requires 40-45% correct. It is on the bottom of the second page of the first link of this post by CooperAlex:

The refreshed exams differ from the other DSSTs and all the CLEPs. As NAP said, you need 40-45% right to pass. On your PTs, I'd suggest aiming for at least 50% and preferably 60% before you test.

I remember seeing this before but couldn't find it again. It still depends on the form you get, hence the score range
