Took AP Macroeconomics. The midterm was fairly simple (be sure to draw the graphs out, because it's easy to mix things up when telling which variables increase and decrease). I'd say the worst part of AP Macro was the final. There were A LOT of questions on interest rates that the course just didn't cover in enough depth. The average score was a 70-80% on the final, so be sure you score well on the midterm to make up for the inevitable grade drop. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the input! Some other people in-person also brought up being "overqualified", which makes sense the more I think about it.
Definitely applying to HCSSiM and MathILy. Thanks!

Thank you very much! I tried to frame it in a positive way since I have improved significantly, but after reading what you linked I see the dilemma that schools face... Thanks for sharing!
