Haha, the "D) \ls" option made me chuckle. Clearly the exam writer has a sense of humor.

D) \ls would list all files in the current directory, not schemas. Gotta love these trick questions!

I’m pretty confident that \dn is the right answer, but I should double-check my notes just in case.

I remember practicing with psql commands, and \ds was definitely for something else, maybe sequences?

Okay, let me think this through. I know there's a meta-command for listing schemas, but I can't remember the exact syntax. I'll have to double-check my notes.
