Ethics in America

[Basket Weaver]

I am scheduled to take the DSST Ethics in America next Wednesday afternoon. I have few questions that I need answered. I only need to take the multiple choice as Excelsior does not grade the essay.

How many questions are on the exam? And is this exam like CLEP in that if you answer roughly half correct you pass. I am seeking an "A" which would be a score of 54 but I am only studying for the next 8 days. Is that enough time?

Thanks.

There is a lot of good feedback on this test in the Specific Exam Feedback Section on the forum's main page... http://www.instantcertonline.com/forums/...t-ece.html

I'm not sure exactly how many questions you have to answer correctly to earn an A as it varies from test to test. It is similar to a CLEP exam in how it's graded, but has more questions and tends to be worded differently. I had about 120 questions on my test; about 75% of them were scenarios. I used the IC cards and studied about 10 days and earned a B. Of course we're all different so I can't say either way if 8 days will be enough, especially if you want an A. From the other feedback I've read, some people were able to achieve the goal you've set, it all comes down to you. Is there a reason you have to take it in 8 days? Either way, good luck and be sure to let us know how it turned out. We'll add your feedback to the feedback section so it'll help others in the future. Regards, Lee
