<p>cc123sb, for comparative advantage you’d just find for which product their opportunity cost is smallest. ie. having to give up 2 units of A to produce 1 unit of B as opposed to having to give up 1 unit of B to produce 1 unit of A (in this situation they would specialize in A). </p>

<p>Company X would have an absolute advantage over Company Y in producing A if they can produce 15 units of A with their resources, while Company Y can only produce 10 units of A with their resources.</p>

<p>(…Wait. Is that what you were even asking? Sorryyyy.)</p>

22

<p>^I thought he was asking for the optimal combination to produce given a Production Posibilities Frontier and maybe the utility curves.</p>

23

<p>Can someone give me a list of equations most likely to appear on the FRQs and explain how to use them? or their estimate of what will be used on the FRQs? I just don’t want to get a one on this exam. lol cramming PR</p>

24

<p>1st FRQ hard as balls</p>

25

<p>Last FRQ was hard, second one was challenging and first one was not easy.</p>

<p>Over all I found the FRQs to be not easy and challenging. Most of my answers I am not sure of.</p>

<p>MC was not bad. </p>

<p>I hope I get a 5.</p>

26

<p>I though MC were fair. Few were just hard as crap. But FR was really really easy! I’m hoping for 4 at least though.</p>

27

<p>Probably <5 wrong on MC. Failed FRQs. I could probably get a 5 still, but I’m expecting a 4.</p>

28

<p>As freddydo said, some tricky MCs but the FR were fairly easy with some parts difficult. Only need a 4 and pretty confident I got at least that.</p>

29

<p>FRQ was rather relatively difficult, I thought… MC was fine though.</p>

30

<p>What the **** was that test?</p>

31

<p>Did anyone else think the last FRQ was macro? I swear my class only did those types of problems during macro (we spent the first half of the year on micro, second half on macro)</p>

32

<p>my test was form b. will that invalidate my test?</p>

33

<p>Both Micro and Macro were complete jokes: definitely a 5 in Macro, at least a 4 in Micro.</p>

<p>I hated the 2nd free response for Micro though, mostly because I was uncertain about a certain part.</p>

<p>Also, the 2nd free response for Macro (I know this is the Micro thread) was a bit tricky - everything doable though. </p>

<p>The 3rd free response on Micro was definitely more related to Micro than Macro.</p>

34

<p>I had to redo my “show your work” type graphs for the first FRQ multiple times because there’s so many lines with that kind of problem. Ugh.</p>

35

<p>Failed… xD well… actually i think MC was ok…</p>

36

<p>MC was super easy. First FRQ was mostly easy, second and third FRQ were super hard though.</p>

37

<p>Can someone help jog my memory and remind me what the three FRQs were about?</p>

38

<p>I took half an online course over Micro and self-studied the other half (I couldn’t keep up all the absurd amounts of busywork necessary for the class), and never in my life have I felt so abjectly terrible about a test. I felt alright about the MC, but I might as well have written poetry in Esperanto on the free-response.</p>

39

<p>Kids in my school had different part 2s…is this supposed to happen?</p>

40

<p>Seemed about the same difficulty as the online released test. FRQs were a little tricky but not bad</p>
