US Government Economics Exam?

Question

I took a US Economics Exam at the Tip O'Neill Federal building in Boston in 2003 and cannot remember the name of the exam, nor can I find any reference to it online. The exam was required for employment with an agency. Anyone know the exam I'm talking about?

Answer 1

Yeah, that sounds like the FAME program offered by the Social Security Administration. FAME= the Federal Alzheimers Memory Exam.  It is used to help SSA determine how long they will have to pay Social Security Insurance to people before they forget who they are.  My guess is they are going to save a bundle on you.
