Passed this today with a 52/48 enough for a B at Excelsior. Can't believe I passed to be honest. Total time spent studying was probably around 20-25 hours over 10 days. It looks like whatever you make on your passyourclass practice test will closely reflect what score you make on the actual DSST. I scored 53% on mine and got a score of 52. - Sam R.
