  Typo Money/Banking flashcard?
Posted by: hsing - 01-21-2008, 12:13 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - No Replies

For the moderator's info, there seems to be contradictory information in flashcard 50 of 60 for "Money and Macroeconomic Activity": (Money and Banking)

Should be GNP not GDP.
==============================
Includes. GNP includes earnings of domestic residents overseas from domestic production; in other words, U.S. citizens working overseas would be included. On the other hand, GDP excludes earnings from domestic residents overseas but includes foreign residents' earnings from domestic production.

For instance, in GNP, a German factory in the U.S. would count towards German GNP. The income for the German workers in that factory would also count towards German GDP, but the American workers in that factory would be added to the U.S. GDP.

With GDP, income is counted according to where it is earned rather than who owns the factors of production. In the above example, all of the income from the car factory would be counted as U.S. GDP rather than German GDP--even though those German workers will be taking their money back to Germany.

From above: "The income for the German workers in that factory would also count towards German GDP, but the American workers in that factory would be added to the U.S. GDP." From my understanding, this should state,

"The income for the German workers in that factory would also count towards German GNP, but the American workers in that factory would be added to the U.S. GDP.

Please correct me if I am mistaken. Thanks.

  costs of taking CLEP test
Posted by: pattyg - 01-21-2008, 12:02 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (9)

I saw someone post the other day that a certain college in NY(I forget which one) only charges $5.00 for each CLEP test that you take.
I would like to ask everyone out there, do you know of anyplace that charges a low fee for taking the CLEP? I live in PA near MD line and driving to NY would be a bit out of range for me, but if there are any others????
Of course, I could always take the Chinatown bus.

  DSST Practice Exam
Posted by: hsing - 01-20-2008, 02:21 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (3)

I'm considering spending $20 to take the Money and Banking online practice test today before I hit the testing center tomorrow.

Has anyone ever used one of these?

Do they include the explanations and correct answers?

Are you able to 'go back in' and review your questions (like you can with the CLEP?)

thanks!

  CLEP/DANTES and Learning Disabilities
Posted by: BMWGuinness - 01-19-2008, 09:04 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (5)

I've heard a few people on here have had issues with running out of time before finishing their exams.

I have read that students with Learning Disabilities can apply for extended time on their exams.

If you had a Learning Disability, would you apply for extended time?
