<p>How long does it take to successfully study AP Micro and Macro? I am interested in economics and I would like to self-study both.</p>
<p>Also, what books would you recommend? I've heard great things about PR and 5 steps to a 5. Any recommendations from people who actually got a 5 would be very helpful.</p>
<p>Bump. Anyone?</p>
<p>I have experience with Barron’s and PR. I tend to prefer PR but Barron’s is also an excellent resource as well. 5 Steps to a 5 and Kaplan’s are also good ones to use. </p>
<p>Preferred AP prep book is definitely Barron’s or PR. Their practice tests are great and the information is concise yet informative. </p>
<p>Last year, I started studying around this time and got a 4 in Micro and a 5 in Macro. Generally, Macro is easier (for me it was anyway) and concepts learned in Macro help understand Micro, but it doesn’t really matter.</p>
<p>Good luck with self-studying.</p>
<p>I just started self studying Macro/Micro last week with PR. Very concise and informative, should be enough to get 5’s on both exams if you can grasp the concepts and remember the graphs.</p>
<p>Thanks for the replies. If I start studying about late March-early April (about a month or so before the exams), would that be ample time to self-study? If I do this, should I spend like an hour a night on each subject?</p>
