Questions were highly specific matters about credit card decisions, ranging from 'what rights does the Fair Credit Reporting Act give consumers" to mathematical questions about picking the best card given specific payment constraints and interest rates.
Questions re finance based on Learning Assignment (NB mental arithmetic required).
