Self-Study for AP Micro or Macro Economics?

[easypeasy]

Any suggestions for study materials that your student has used in the past that you were satisfied with? 🙂

DS signed up for these, then decided to NOT take the exams, then changed his mind. We're thinking of just macro because he's done some casual study on the material, but he'd like to consider both and perhaps take one AP and one CLEP.

Thank you in advance!!! 🙂

The ACDC courses have reviewed well in the past: https://www.acdcecon.com

ETA- we might do our own thing next year and add on a CLEP exam, but I haven't looked at the Modern States  CLEP courses yet for those subjects. I probably won't until we have a better idea where she's going to college.

Edx/ Modern States has micro through MITx and AP Macro through Davidson Next.

The ACDC videos are what got us through the Macro class, although my student didn't take the exam because of Covid.

I taught my students the AP macro last year. This book from the council of economics education was quite helpful. https://store.councilforeconed.org/shopping_product_detail.asp?pid=52362

Is this a textbook or is it meant to be in addition to the textbook?

it is meant to be an addition to the textbook. It is mostly problems for the students to solve. A sample is available here https://www.dentonisd.org/cms/lib/TX21000245/Centricity/Domain/929/Measuring Broad Econ Goals CPI GDP packet.KEY.pdf
