2.0 out of 5 stars
A poor excuse for a study guide,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: DSST Principles of Public Speaking (Dantes Series) (Dantes Series : No. 59) (Plastic Comb)
Unlike Comex's excellent CLEP study guides, the amateurish study guide for the DANTES Principles of Public Speaking test was hardly useful at all. Essentially, this "guide" is a bunch of practice tests spiral bound together. There's no rhyme or reason to the order of questions, no grouping by subjects, heavy repetition of questions, and it even changes fonts from test to test.
I could look over the sloppy presentation if there was some useful information inside, but unlike the CLEP guide, which gave an overview of the fundamentals of the subject, the DANTES guide has nothing but questions and answers. If you want to know why you got an answer right or wrong, you have to do your own research. If they had made that clear up front, I probably wouldn't have bothered buying this so-called guide. The guide is probably useful in that you're bound to pick up some answers by sheer repetition, but if you buy it expecting to dominate the actual DANTES test or actually learn something, you're going to be sadly disappointed. FOLLOW UP: I finally got my test results back, and I passed by a pretty decent margin. I suppose that means this guide is a success, but I still think it's pretty shabby.

Terrible source to review for Public Speaking,
By
This review is from: DSST Principles of Public Speaking (Dantes Series) (Dantes Series : No. 59) (Plastic Comb)
The other DANTES review books may be good, but this one is completely useless. There are plenty of ball-busting questions, but virtually no review of the content. The book I used for the course I took was excellent, but it does not cover the material well enough to pass the exam. However, this book is good enough to show you how difficult the real exam will be. The key is to find the book that provides adequate review preparation for the exam. I have no idea which is the best book to prepare for the exam, but this one is not the one to buy.

By An avid reader (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: DSST Principles of Public Speaking (Dantes Series) (Dantes Series : No. 59) (Plastic Comb)
My buddy recommended this DANTES study book, and it is definitely worth picking up if you are looking for a good way to pick up credits.
