<p>I'm thinking of self studying one of the AP Economics tests but I'm not sure which one to self study, so I have a few questions regarding the two exams:</p>
<p>Which one would you guys recommend I self study?
Which one would be the easier one (in terms of getting a 4 or a 5)?
Which one would have less material to learn?
Which one is more conceptual rather than more memorization?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I took a half a year course in Macroenomics and self studied Microeconomics, for scores of 4 and 3, respectively. My perspective may be biased because of this difference, but I personally macro to be both more concept oriented and easier to learn. A bit of differential calculus knowledge helps, BTW - it is not NECESSARY, by any means, but it helps make a couple of things involving rates of change make sense instead of just being words to memorize.</p>
<p>Why don't you self-study both? They have a bit of overlap, after all.</p>
<p>^ Yeah, study both =). If you can only take one, do Macro.</p>
