Microeconomics/Managerial Accounting

[Krisboelte1]

I took Microeconomics and Macroeconomics clep last spring, crushed the macro exam and failed micro by a point (a very painful point). Between then and now I took the man acct course and wanted to point out that there is a lot of overlap between the two. Hopefully I'll have better results on Nov 5 when I take micro again! Just wanted to make mention of this in case it helps anyone in the planning stage.

Thanks for the info, Krisboelte1. I think that I have to take the managerial accounting course, and I know that I have to take micro and macro. Is there any order in which you would recommend taking them? (Not sure how I'll handle micro and macro. Test? Class?) Thanks.

The macro clep was not bad, and I hadn't even found instantcert yet. I used the cliff notes and the peterson practice tests along with the college board macro study guide information. I would think that with the instantcert flash cards that you would have no problem with the macro. If you are taking man acct anyway I would absolutely take it before the micro clep. I am studying for the micro clep now (test 11/5) and am drawing on the subjects that relate to costs/revenue that I learned in that class (which I found to be brutal) all of the time. I'll post my results on November 5....cross your fingers for me!

Will do. Good luck, and thanks for the advice.
