Microeconomics- help? - quixadoxically - 01-01-2012
So I've been studying for about 2 weeks, and am taking the Microeconomics CLEP in 3 days and I'm a little nervous now. I just signed up for Instantcert and was looking over their Basic Economic Concepts flashcards and I don't know a thing! I've taken several practice tests and read through 3 books- CLEP Principles of Microeconomics with REA software, Princeton Review AP prep for Microeconomics (yes I'm aware it's AP not CLEP but it came highly recommended for studying from other forums), and the Official 2012 CLEP study guide and I passed all those exams with 60+ scores. Now I come here and don't know a single question.
Is this site accurate in their questions being on CLEP tests or am I just missing something?
Thanks for your time answering.

Ok small update as I've been going through them. I'm familiar with the terms they're using such as opportunity cost, profit, capital, but these other terms like fallacy of ____, interpretation of causation, and others are coming out of nowhere. They weren't in any of the books or sample tests I've read through, only on this website.
Anyone whose taken the Microeconomics CLEP recently, can you tell me if these kind of terms are on the test?

I passed with a 72 on both of these with the REA books and sparknotes.com

Ok update: I passed the Microeconomics with a 70 and you don't need to know the fallacy of composition and interpretation of causation stuff that I was worried about. Instant Cert, REA, Official CLEP Guide, and Principles of AP are plenty. I spent 2.5 weeks studying and I was completely ready after 2, probably 1.5 weeks.
