Are you interested in learning more about why things are the way they are? Interested in business? Want to learn more about inflation? Then AP Macroeconomics is for you!
AP Macroeconomics provides students with valuable information regarding the economy and finances over all. Moreover, the class can help students make informed decisions when it comes to knowing the best time to purchase cars, houses or when to get a job and ask for a raise.
A former AP Macroeconomics student shares, “Whether for your personal life, your view on life, your future and maybe even other classes you might stumble on… TAKE THIS CLASS!”
If you are a student looking to gain a post secondary education in business, political science, etc… then the class is highly recommended for you. Students who take AP classes are widely recognized for their rigor by colleges. In other words, having AP Macroeconomics might be exactly what you need to get into your dream college! If you take an AP class, and receive at least a 3 on the exam, you are guaranteed to gain college credit with every Maryland college.
The class serves as your PFET credit, but can still be requested if you’ve taken and passed PFET previously. A benefit of AP Macroeconomics is there is little to no writing. The class does not include DBQs, or anything similar; students will simply provide their answers and move onto the next question!
In order for Kenwood High to have the class, 15 juniors or seniors must request AP Macroeconomics with their counselor. This can be done through a Schoology message, or the pink slips located in the counseling office.
If you are interested, please follow the aforementioned instructions soon, as the
requirement deadline is swiftly approaching. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to AP Macroeconomics teacher, Mrs. Rodier at [email protected]. OR, review the AP Macroeconomics Course and Exam
