<p>Are you insinuating something? Just wondering. Anyway, as my teacher put it “Economists have their own language”. They like to make up words and such. It’s definitely possible to understand out of a textbook (as that is what they are there for), but I PERSONALLY don’t recommend it, but it might work better for you. Be warned though, textbooks usually go into a lot of information that is not even relevant to the exam (as AeroEngineer said). What is covered on the Econ exams is not very “in-depth”, so a textbook is really not necessary. I have both motivation and intelligence, but I did not find the textbook as an easy read.</p>
