I took the Principles of Macroeconomics CLEP today and passed with a whopping 54 :eek:
This exam was pure torture for me. I don't know if I misinterpreted the exam feedback or if I simply had a different version (I'm leaning toward that explanation). My exam just seemed so off compared to the feedback thread. I will admit I did not put in my usual amount of study time toward this exam - "life" kept getting in the way. I should have delayed taking the exam another week, but it's over and a pass is a pass!
Now, I have 6 credits left for my ASBA (1 class (Managerial Acctg) and 1 CLEP to go!!!). The CLEP I have to take is Business Law. I planned on taking that in the later part of August. I also plan on seamlessly working toward my BSBA, so I will need Microeconomics at some point.
Should I just suck it up and take the Micro CLEP now (well, in a few weeks) while some of this info is fresh in my head? Part of me wants to be done with it completely and part of me just wants to forget about Micro until I truly need it and focus my efforts on Business Law.
Any input would be appreciated!

Definitely take the Micro CLEP soon...the carry-over knowledge from macro is important...

The microeconomics exam is more difficult than the macro exam. I've taken both within the last two weeks and I doubt I'd have passed micro with as little study time as I put in if I didn't have the basic economics concepts fresh in my mind from studying macro. Good luck!
