I asked, "I am interested specifically in Organizational Behavior, Substance Abuse, and Management Information Systems DSSTs? I would assume these are business and health courses, but I am interested in taking them though they are indirectly related to psychology."

She is referring to the fact that my Intro Psychology course from 10 years ago is a four credit course, if I bomb the GRE and get only three credits, it will still replace and I will actually lose a credit. So, evidently, the tests duplicated are the very obvious ones, thank goodness, I can now include these 3 in my testing plan.
An update for anybody following my story, or comparing my progress with your own, I did bomb last weeks practice test out of the Barron's book, with a disappointing 111 raw score, but thankfully it came up to a reasonable 138 out of this week's REA practice test book. I still believe in being optimistic though!
Thanks for posting this- this is very helpful for those of us thinking about GREs. We're all rooting for you!
