Is it easy? Should I take it if I'm aiming to get all straight A's?? Will taking AP Econ increase my chances of not getting straight A's next year when I am a senior?
AP Macroeconomics is one of the easiest classes I have ever taken. I believe that the concepts are very simplistic. It requires average math skill, and mainly the ability to visualize. Honestly, if you are an AP student, this class should not be a challenge for you.
You pretty much learn about supply and demand graphs the entire course. It generally is the basis on what the AP Econ test wants you to know. Try buying one of the Princeton Review or Cliffs' Notes books on AP Econ, it'll tell you the same. Although sometimes it does get confusing about which shifts and moves the curves.
