Review on study.com Personal Finance

[icy]

I've been a member here for a while, but this is my first post. I'm grateful for all the info on this forum and I just want to give back.
I have been awarded the Guardian/study.com scholarship (https://study.com/blog/guardian-s-person...rship.html) and I'm able to take study.com courses for three months. I can take whatever courses I want, but the first course had to be Personal Finance and I finished it today. This will be a basic review, but if anyone is interested in a detailed review, I have no problem doing so.

So it took me about a week and a half to complete the course. I could have finished it in about 3 days, but I procrastinated a bit. Anyone who has experience with home/car buying, investments, or has really good financial management skills can probably complete this class in a day. I don't have much experience outside of having some basic bank accounts and a car loan, so it took a bit more effort on my part.

I completed all the quizzes with 100% scores and I took the practice final exam twice. I got a 93% both times. I took the final exam and it was harder than the practice exams. Where the practice final exam was simply 45 questions taken from the previously taken quizzes, the 100 question final included about 3 questions from the quizzes. I feel like you need to have a good grasp of the concepts. There are study flash cards at the end of the course that would probably be great preparation for the final. Since I scored so high twice on the practice exams, I didn't go over them. I only read through my notes once.

I have not received my score, yet. I think it may take up to two weeks. I'm a little nervous because there were several questions that I did not know the answer to. I will definitely go over the flashcards next time, and make sure that I know most of the bolded terms in the lessons inside and out. I was a little over confident because the quizzes were so easy.

Once I get my score, I'll update and maybe give tips on what to focus on for the final.

Do you need a calculator for this exam?
