<p>I think the FRQ were SO EASY LOL
MC was good, but there were 1 or 2 really hard questions.</p>

<p>come here to discuss</p>

4

<p>no one is in the room.</p>

5

<p>I’m in the room</p>

6

<p>MC was meh. Free-response was bad.</p>

7

<p>Either I did everything wrong or that test was a give-away.</p>

<p>I don’t remember more than five tricky multiple choice and the free response were very straight forward (except maybe a part in the last one).</p>

8

<p>mc was pretty easy but i think i seriously messed up on the last two frq :/</p>

9

<p>The MC was easy save for a couple of difficult questions. The FRQs were easy except for the second one, since we never really covered that in class.</p>

10

<p>**** i got kinda screwed on the MC and i did well on the free response. if i dont get a 5 i am shafted</p>

11

<p>That was HARD! MC had maybe 10 really hard ones and FRQs had some tricky parts to them. Micro was easy though</p>

12

<p>It wasn’t too hard except for a few confusing questions but the thing is the curves for both econ exams are ridiculously unforgiving. I think I got a high 4 or low 5</p>

13

<p>I think the frq was super easy. I think i may have aced the whole part.
Some questions on mc took me off guard, not because i didnt study them, but because they asked in different forms… Like the second or third last question… If u know what i mean</p>

14

<p>Well MC was easy except for the barter economy question and monetarist’s money rule question…
btw, what’s the range for a 5 in AP Macroeconomics?</p>

15

<p>Pretty tough. You need less than 7 wrong in mc to ensure a 5</p>

16

<p>Here are my answers to the FRQ. Let me know what you guys think…</p>

<p>‘eobaggs’ ur answers are exactly the same as mine…:slight_smile:
but instead of saying that current account deficit ‘increases’, i said current account deficit becomes ‘more negative’ (becomes more deficit)
Do you think my answer would score? I was confused with the English during the exam, so I said that it becomes more negative and more deficit…(?)</p>

18

<p>yeah your answers are exactly the same as mine. I said that the deficit increases.</p>

19

<p>Good to hear that we got the same answers! :)</p>

<p>@wlsnehf: More deficit is the same thing as increases so I’m sure you’ll get the points for that! :)</p>

20

<p>what topics were focused on the mcs? like a lot on fiscal/ monetary policy? and btw is the form b harder than the form a? could similar questions be expected?</p>
