    Default Peterson's Microeconomics

    Boy are their practive tests much tougher than I/C's flash cards.
    I feel like I have a great idea about concepts until I read some of the ways they pose the questions.

    I've traditionally scored lower on theirs than on here but geez....

    Generally speaking - the Petersons practice exams are a few degrees tougher than the real thing. If you can fair well on them you should have no problem when sitting the real exam. GOOD LUCK!!

    I just finished the 3rd practice and am up to 74%, but only 69% overall
    Tommorrow 8 am will be the 90 minutes of truth

    Those Peterson's tests are some real confidence killers, but if you're scoring that well on them, you'll be fine for the test. GOOD LUCK!

    just finished the test with a 64
    there were several questions I didn't have a clue on
    I am so glad to be done with this one
    Unfortunately my school limits Clep hours to 30, so that's it for me
    Time to start challenging the professors with challenge exams
