Last month I took the DSST Astronomy test and noticed that the content on the test was vastly different than the IC cards, FREE-CLEP-PREP, and various other sources that I used in preparation. I took the liberty of calling Prometric to ensure that I was given the correct test. In talking with Joe at Prometric, he confirmed that the Astronomy test was "Refreshed" back in June.
Since I was not aware of this, I took and failed the test with a score of 388, which at first i was quite upset about, but then in realizing that I studied all the wrong material I was not as self-depreciating.
I did a quick search on the forums and didn't see any threads mentioning the reworked exams, so I figured that I would start one.
Reworked Exams:
- Astronomy
- Intro to Law Enforcement (judging from the replies on the direct feedback thread)
