<p>All of us post our questions on either one of the tests and hopefully a fellow CC student can answer the question. I'll start.</p>

<p>Do you all really think we should completely memorize the graph for an imperfect competitor with a zone of economic profit?</p>

2

<p>which imperfect competitor? the monopolistic competition, monopolist, or oligopoly? anyway, i think the answer to your question is yes</p>

3

<p>Okay thanks....</p>

4

<p>The oligopoly isn't a separate graph. They can either compete freely (perfect competition graph) or form a cartel (monopolist graph)</p>

5

<p>my teacher says you don't need to know oligopoly graphs because it's "too complicated for our minds" so CB doesn't put it on their tests anymore
hah!</p>

6

<p>oligopoly isn't confusing.....</p>

7

<p>Macroeconomics people?
Who's ready for this test?</p>

8

<p>I'm taking both. I'll be cramming after I get my bio exam out of the way tomorrow.</p>

9

<p>No idea what Macro is even about..grrrr.. haven't taken class and taken AP for no reason..parents will be ****ed if i dont get at least a 4...what a waste of money..grrrrrrr</p>

10

<p>I'm taking both, and I have about four days to learn Micro on my own. =&lt;/p>

11

<p>A 4 is pretty easy to get, just know the graphs. <a href="http://reffonomics.com/1%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://reffonomics.com/1&lt;/a> is a good site for graphs. Micro is all about the markets, just differentiate them.</p>

12

<p>thank you! That's super duper helpful!</p>

13

<p>How many points do I need to score on the Microeconmics test to receive a 4?</p>

14

<p>just get a 60 and you will be fine...</p>

15

<p>According to my prep book a 54 raw score out of 90 gives you a 4, and a 71 5</p>

16

<p>What is the approx curve for macro for a 3,4 and a 5</p>

17

<p>It's the same for macro. Just 1 more point needed to get a 5. 45 for a 3, according to my prep book. </p>

<p>I have a question. Why does reducing the budget deficit decrease interest rate?</p>

18

<p>45.......hmmmm let's see if i can get that...</p>

19

<p>I just picked up the Princeton Review AP Micro/Macro Study Aid for this year and it has pretty much everything to cram for the tests. It has two practice tests too with almost 200 practice problems. It's like $17 at Borders.</p>

20

<p>out of 90, 60 MC and 30 pts from FR right? I'm getting about 50 from MC so that's good.</p>
