<p>I need your opinoins on something. I am self studying micro/macro economics since my school does not have them, and have 2 books on it(both how to prepare for the AP exam). I was wondering if there are any other books I should get to help me get a 4 or 5 on the exam or are The Princeton Review and Barrons studies good enough? Thanks.</p>
<p>Use different media it will make the studying interesting. Use these websites:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.tutor2u.net%5B/url%5D">www.tutor2u.net</a> (this is a british website but the free presentations are incredibly awesome. The forums are great and the materials are written by econ grad students from London School of Economics, Oxford and Cambridge)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.sparknotes.com%5B/url%5D">www.sparknotes.com</a> (they have an econ review. They are good for the basics)</p>
<p>Cliff Notes AP (excellent makes the learning worthwhile.)</p>
<p>Also keep up with the news and current events as they can only help you.</p>
<p>I self-studied micro (was in a macro course), and Barron's and PR were enough without additional material.</p>
<p>id always feel more comfortable with a text when self studying a course.</p>
<p>what text book do you guys recommend?</p>
<p>I reccomend Prinecton Review, it is truly the best out there. However, they tend to use different graphs, which doesn't really matter because the macro test doesn't really focus on graphs. </p>
<p>In terms of text books, I'd go with BAUMOL or TOLLISON. Both are excellent books.</p>
<p>What really matters though is learning to do the free-response section of the exams...transponders and such</p>
