AP Microeconomics

In this four-week course, students explore the power of marginal thinking and apply it to common decisions that individuals and business firms encounter each day.

Students examine, interpret, analyze, and model key microeconomics concepts and processes, from the shifting supply and demand for familiar products to the model of the labor market and how wages are determined. This rich course provides students with all the material and practice needed for success on the AP Exam.

Yet, this is just the beginning—in the long run, taking AP Microeconomics will develop the critical thinking and analytical skills that empower students for a lifetime.

Prerequisite: Successful completion of Algebra 1.
