Struggling in AP Macro!

Hi, i’m taking AP Macro for my second semester of senior year and i’m struggling a lot on quizzes. I have a notoriously bad teacher- he’s a coach, often shows up 30 minutes late to class, has no clue where he keeps any of his papers or notes so a good 20 mins is spent each class just trying to find what he wanted us to do that day.

I’m one of the better students in the class grade-wise, but still do bad on quizzes. I do fine on the tests, though. I struggle a lot on quizzes. We have a textbook that I read every night and I take very detailed notes. I was wondering if anyone has any other resources they know of? Only 10 people in my entire school take this class, so it’s hard to get help.

Thanks!

Have you bought a prep book? I would recommend looking at Princeton Review or Barron’s. You can look online for explanation videos. Do you know any graduated seniors from past years? Email/text them to ask what they did.

@yonceonhismouth I do have a prep book. None of my graduated friends took AP. I’ll try using Khan Academy.

Sometimes courses like EdX offer aP Prep courses, you might be able to find one for macro.

There’s a really good YouTube channel called ACDCLeadership. The creator covers the entire course and even has a supplementary packet($10?) you can purchase that should get you a 4/5. He’s also co-host of crash course economics.

@hamlon Thanks! I’ll look into that. I haven’t heard of it!

@yonceonhismouth Thanks! I totally forgot about Edx
