*** Official AP Macroeconomics Thread ***

<p>What do you guys think?</p>

<p>For MC, I think it's easier than the practice test I took from Barron</p>

<p>anyone out there that's really good at econ that wants to talk to me on AIM? i got a lot of unanswered questions</p>

<p>everything is easier than barrons!</p>

<p>it was pretty much what i expected.</p>

<p>okay wuts ur S/N?</p>

<p>wow i was freaking out last night cause i had macro last semester and forgot everything. but today's test was so easy!!! i mean lol the FR.....lol</p>

<p>crazychai- omg same here hahaha
i didn't even have a book to study from!! i so thought i was gonan fail miserably. however that was the best Ap i took (the least important =,=)</p>

<p>don't u just love that feeling?? gosh i feel so lucky! i just might go buy a lottery ticket!</p>

<p>o wow i guess i did pretty bad...i've been hearing a lot of people say it was easy :(</p>

<p>Join the club. I think I did absolutely horrible at least compared to the AP Micro test. I thought the Micro test was so much easier.</p>

<p>What % is needed to get a 5 on macro?</p>

<p>add me: jays3n</p>

<p>I think I did pretty well, but my teacher's pass rate last year was only like 29% and she had no 5s, so my hopes seem far-fetched. </p>

<p>According to the PR book, you need a 65-90 to get a 5, which would be about 72% of all possible points.</p>

<p>that was absurd easy. I was expecting way harder questions.</p>

<p>What percentage on the mult. choice is ballpark for a 4 or 5, considering you got about 90% credit for the frqs?</p>

<p>i took a practice test before and got a 50.</p>

<p>my teacher said i just need to get 1 FR correct and partial credit for the others to get a 5.</p>

<p>Here's a breakdown according to Princeton Review
5 65-90
4 50-64
3 41-49
2 26-40
1 0-25</p>

<p>i'm confident i got at least a 4 on this test.</p>

<p>Poolio -
Well, the FR section is worth 33.3% of the total grade, so 30 points. 90% of those points equals 27. 65 (the lower limit for a 5) minus 27 equals 38 points, which roughly corresponds to 43 MC right and 17 MC wrong. 50 (the lower limit for a 4) minus 27 equals 23 points, which corresponds to about 31 MC correct and 29 MC wrong.</p>

<p>so the FR is 30 points, MC is 60....and about a 70 will get you a 5, and about a 55 will get you a 4</p>

<p>not bad at all</p>

<p>we can talk about it since it's been 48 hours.
micro test:
deadweight loss was f and g
consumer surplus after tax was just a
tax revenue was b c and d
only 6 workers
400$ was MRP
did the price not change after the long run changed?
100 was quantity; 12 was price</p>

<p>for macro test:
demand for loanable funds shifted right
-higher interest rates, increased dollar and less exports
phillips curve shifts outward after supply shifted left
long run phillips curve is verticle at natural employment of 5%
aggregate demand shifts left after recession in japan</p>
