About this resource
This quiz focuses on personal financial literacy, specifically targeting debt awareness and credit education fundamentals. The content is designed for high school students in grades 9-12, addressing critical concepts about debt, credit cards, and financial marketing tactics that young adults encounter. Students need to understand basic financial vocabulary including debt, credit, and interest rates, while developing critical thinking skills to analyze the true costs of borrowing money. The questions require students to recognize predatory lending practices, calculate percentage returns on cash-back offers, understand how minimum payments primarily cover interest rather than principal, and comprehend the business model behind credit card companies. This material builds essential financial reasoning skills that prepare students to make informed decisions about borrowing and spending as they transition to financial independence. Created by Gary Freilino, a Mathematics teacher in the US who teaches grades 9-12. This quiz serves as an excellent tool for introducing students to the realities of consumer debt and credit card marketing before they become targets of financial institutions. Teachers can use this assessment as a warm-up activity to gauge students' existing knowledge about credit and debt, or as a review tool following lessons on personal finance fundamentals. The quiz works effectively as homework to reinforce classroom discussions about financial literacy, or as a formative assessment to identify areas where students need additional support in understanding credit terms and debt consequences. This content directly supports standards such as CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSA.CED.A.3 for representing constraints in financial contexts and various state personal finance standards that require students to analyze credit offers and understand the long-term implications of borrowing decisions.
