5.0 out of 5 stars ATTN AP Econ and College Students, February 21, 2002

By	W. Chiu "macroeconomist" (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I used this book for the AP Macro and Micoeconomics exams, and I scored two 4's. I am currently taking Introduction to Economics at UC Berkeley, and this book serves as a better resource than the expensive textbook.

I got an A in UCB's Econ 1 course.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great CLEP Prep Book!, November 13, 2006

A Kid's Review

I just took both micro and macro economic CLEP tests, and passed both with a 63 and 60 respectively. The only studying I used was this book, coupled with a little online research and the offical CLEP practice tests. It worked great! However, this book does not cover the exchange market, so I suggest that you research this a little before taking the test.

4.0 out of 5 stars Preparing for the CLEP, March 31, 2006

By	A. Galgocy - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Thie book was very helpful with the basics. I just passed the CLEP today and got a 67 (out of 80). You need a 50 to pass for most schools. If you want to pass this CLEP I recommend purchasing online practice tests. I bought one from the official CLEP webiste. The questions on that practice exam are very close to the ones that you will find on the CLEP exam. Also, I purchased a practice test from petersons.com. These questions were definitely harder, but really get you preapared for the CLEP. Once you take those, the CLEP is a breeze. Good luck!
