Question about studying for Microecon
Hi everyone,

I was hoping if anyone could help me. My microeconomics midterm is this Saturday and I was under the impression that they provide practice midterms on avenue for you to study. However that is not the case. Does anyone have any practice midterms I could study from or know any resources to study from? Thank you.

Study off the lecture slides.

Kinda depends on the prof, Holmes put all her slides online, the other one didn't (forget her name)

I did micro out of the lecture slides and had great success, did macro out of the textbook, had a bit less success (but that is a bit due to not as much time for the course/no lecture slides/course being more difficult than micro)

Yeah if its Holmes, all you need to do is read over the lecture slides and memorize/make sense out of any charts or "equations".

Yup, lecture slides are a gold mine. The only thing you may not get w/o going to lecture or having a friend tell you is the bonus question.

Don't study. It's a waste of {insert however long you plan on studying for it} of your time. If you did the assignments, you'll live (through the first midterm anyways).

OH. And helpful hint for the second one: Don't cheat! Anyone that took it last year gets the inside joke here...
