The Importance of Financial Education

This was an individual studies project in collaboration with my class Advanced Financial Management as part of my requirements within the Honors Program.

In this study I wanted to explore the topic of how financial education effects a person's financial literacy.

To do such, I created a short test with questions ranging from being about insurance to loans to savings. I then analyzed the results using Excel and R to look at how the participants' grade level, the number of financial education classes, and the type of financial education class affected the person's test score and knowledge of finances.
