Just took DSST Money & Banking - Trajan - 05-01-2006

I just took Money & Banking. All in all it was not as difficult as I thought it would be. There were many questions on the Fed, Keynesian economics, Bank acts etc. It was a very broad exam, many topics were covered. I had to guess at around 10-15 questions that were not covered in my studies. I left the testing center feeling that I passed, we'll see in 2 weeks! Big Grin

Great to hear it!! I'm sure you did just fine, sounds like you were well prepared. Only guessing on 10-15 is not too shabby, you may have aced it. One more down... Big Grin

Well done Trajan,

Most people say that this is one of the most difficult exams out there. After taking it yourself, would you agree?

Which exams would you consider to be about equal in difficulty, if any?

Can you remind us what you used to study for this exam?

Thanks and congrats,
Snazzlefrag

Thanks Libarts! thanks Snazzlefrag! I would agree that it was a difficult test,but not one of the most difficult in my opinion. I think it was a little harder than Macroeconomics, given the broad range of topics covered. I used instantcert, the Rudman book, Wikipedia and I read 3/4 of a textbook to prepare.

Hi Trajan,

I just came across this message while looking for postings to do with the "Money & Banking" exam. I was wondering what textbook you used that you mentioned in your post and where did you get it? Also...do you remember if the Rudman book helped you very much?

I have heard this is a hard exam, so I'm not looking forward to it! Thanks for any other feedback you can give.

Take care,
