<p>I'm planning on taking AP Econ for next year, and I've heard that it is the hardest AP course at our school. I am currently taking AP Calculus AB, psych, and Stats. I am breezing through Stats and psych, and doing fairly well on Calc.</p>
<p>How hard is AP Econ (assuming that our school does BOTH macro and micro econ in 1 year) compared to the APs that I'm currently taking?</p>
<p>not to difficult, as long as you read the textbook.</p>
<p>Wat? Ap ECOn hard??? Where does that come from? Believe me dude, its like one os the easiest APs u've taken. I mean, yeah, u have to study. BUt its easy. I mean, iam kinda self-studying Macro right now coz **** my teacher doesnt do ANYTHINg in class. Iam serious. IWe dont do anything/ </p>
<p>But yeay, just buy sum books and study. </p>
<p>Iam taking AP PHys and STATS right now too. BUt they are OF COurse harder than ECOON. I took CAL BC as a sophomore last year and i think it's not hard. :P</p>
<p>Econ isn't bad. In my opinion, it's harder than Stat and Psych, but about on-par with Calc. It all depends on how strong you are in dealing with abstract concepts. Don't sweat it.. there are harder APs out there (Chemistry for example.. blech).</p>
<p>Econ is pretty hard for me. I guess it just comes easily to some people and not others. Here's an instant way to find out whether you'll find it easy or not: Get an AP Econ prep book, like Princeton Review and Barron's, read the first 10 pages of the review, and if you can summarize everything easily, you are one of the lucky 'breeze-through econ types'. If you have to re-read things OVER AND OVER AGAIN (like me), then you will most likely find it hard.</p>
<p>And I'm not stupid, I just find econ really hard.</p>
<p>Econ is easy.
You study relationships and concepts.
It's remarkably straightforward.</p>
<p>Not difficult. It is if you are just taking the course for the heck of getting another AP Credit or such.</p>
