Macro Economics - archerbob - 12-06-2016
Just finished my Macro test yesterday passed with a 62.
General overview of my exp:
Flashcards proved invaluable, the test, if anything was more similar to the instacert experience than I was expecting.
Less graphs and math than I thought there might be.
More on fiscal and monetary policy as well as trade than I had prepped for.
Know how to calculate trade imbalences and the PPCurve. this was the only math I had to do.
My study methods:
Do and redo the flash card sets, one per day for 4 weeks.
Watch (and rewatch) episodes of CrashCourse Economics (1-20, the rest are on micro) repeatly. Sprikle in a little of Mr. Cliffords non-CrashCourse AC/DC econ videos.
Went from zero econ knowledge to a 62 in a 5 weeks.
