Use the online resources for the course textbook. If you do nothing else, review the online chapter quizzes before taking the Straighterline Chapter exam.
Macro here Limits, Alternatives, and Choices
Micro here Limits, Alternatives, and Choices
Since these sites are the online companions for the recommended books, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the online chapter quizzes...
The textbooks happen to be very good, so it might make sense to purchase USED copies from $7.00 here Amazon.com: Used and New: Macroeconomics
or here Amazon.com: Used and New: Microeconomics -Text Only
You might figure out at some point that achieving a 92% pass rate is substantially harder than achieving a 70% pass rate. What I mean is 50% of questions are easy-fairly easy, 20% of questions are medium hard, 30% of questions are hard. If your goal is merely to pass and go the ACE route, you will make it, while learning the material....if your goal is to make 90% plus, transfer the results to FHSU so that you can get graded A's transcripted before forwarding to TESC, then you will need to spend more time, although it is achievable.
Did I mention that you should review the online chapter quizzes before you take the SL chapter exams?
Good luck!
For micro, would you have to earn 70% on EVERY quiz, or just a course total of 70%? In other words, what if you fail a quiz?
