Technical Writing DSST Passed

Recently (9/9/09) took this exam. I found it to be moderately easy with some "gotcha" type questions.

Overall, I only studied ~5hrs with a passyourclass.com study guide. In addition, I reviewed the questions and answers that the website supplied. I ended up scoring a 59. The min passing was 46.

I would suggest taking a look at the course outline and tailor your study habits to that (I did not). I would also suggest on making sure to use the alloted 2 hr time and read, read, read the questions fully. Other than that, most of the questions that I knew were common sense type grammar, sentence structure and general technical writing questions.
