I read through the slides and noted down the highlighted information/formulas. Then go back and do the example in the slides. 1-2 Days should be enough to study it.

Thanks, bro... you put me at ease, here. I did well in macro (10), but I do not think I will get the same mark in micro. -___- thanks, though.

well I had basically summarized all my notes onto a few pages. This might be hard to do for u if u write everything out. Still memorize the formulas and her examples on the slides she gives, many questions are the same except different numbers

our exam was like this:
2/3 was new stuff - for this part study the utility theory
- know ur formulas - there were blocks of questions all which were all related ( as in answer for one will be used to answer another)
rest was old stuff ( very simple)

agree... but really its an easy 12... there wasn't any difficult concepts in this course. plain and simple. at least that's how it was 3 years ago.
