Interactive Monday: Test Your Credit Score Knowledge
Hat tip to NGPF Fellow Jill Wilson for sharing this credit score quiz with us.
What's to like about the quiz?
- It's short (12 questions)
- It's thorough: covers what factor goes into a credit score, who cares about your credit score and the cost of not having a good credit score.
- It's a good review after you have completed your managing credit unit.

Here are two teacher favorites when it comes to credit score activities to engage your students: Interactive: FICO Credit Scores and Calculate: Impact of Credit Scores on Loans.
About the Author
Tim Ranzetta
Tim's saving habits started at seven when a neighbor with a broken hip gave him a dog walking job. Her recovery, which took almost a year, resulted in Tim getting to know the bank tellers quite well (and accumulating a savings account balance of over $300!). His recent entrepreneurial adventures have included driving a shredding truck, analyzing executive compensation packages for Fortune 500 companies and helping families make better college financing decisions. After volunteering in 2010 to create and teach a personal finance program at Eastside College Prep in East Palo Alto, Tim saw firsthand the impact of an engaging and activity-based curriculum, which inspired him to start a new non-profit, Next Gen Personal Finance.
