So I purchased SL macroeconomics and it seems to have been revised since the information I read on here about it. There are 10 quizzes plus the midterm. Way more quizzes than a usual course. And the closed book final is still worth 300 points (out of 1000) so no help there. I took the first quiz and about 7 of the questions were word problems where you have to look at data and calculate an answer. Even though I read the chapter several times, the information was not clear and it was super difficult for me to figure out exactly what to do. I am considering dropping this class and taking it elsewhere. I can't imagine being able to get high marks on the quizzes if the textbook is not clearly related to the questions.
