Question about DSST scoring

[peace123]

On the DSST exams, how does the scoring work? On Intro to Law Enforcement you have to make a 45 to receive credit. Is each point equivalent to getting one question right. For Example, I've been taking the Free Peterson's exam and I made a 59%. does that mean my score would be equivalent to a 59 on the DSST exam? Do you only have to get 45 questions correct to pass?

Thanks for your help!

It has been mentioned here on the forum that a good rule of thumb is : if you can answer correctly a little bit more then half the questions on the actual DSST exam , you will pass.
