    Hi Ray,

    I hope you are well.

    I haven't taken the Macroeconomics exam yet. I'm sure others will be along shortly to help you out with additional info, you might like to do a quick search to find existing threads about it.

    But I can tell you that there will be 80 questions on the exam, and you will have 90 minutes to complete it. The same is also true for Microeconomics.

    Hope that helps,
    Snazzlefrag

    Hey Ray -

    I took both macro and micro around a year ago and believe there was 80 questions on the exam. You will need to focus on the aspects of GDP, supply and demand curves and such. The Standard Deviant videos were an excellent learning tool. The REA book was good too. GOOD LUCK!!

    I thought that the Macroeconomics and Microeconomics tests were both fairly easy. I used InstantCert and Cliffs QuickNotes Economics for these tests. I didn't use any additional information.

    Good luck,

    Look for it on either AMAZON or EBAY; get a used (CHEAP) copy and save some $$$.

    Ray, I told you the wrong title. The book that I used was

    CliffNotes::Economics QuickReview Study Guide

    It is only $9.99 and you can buy and then download it from the above link.
