The AP Microeconomics exam will not have many questions on Comparative Advantage.
"There's not that many questions on Compare Advantage on the micro exam."
Pending
If teachers cover and practice topic 2.1 thoroughly, they will be able to teach topic 2.2 faster because students will already understand demand.
"If you do that, that makes 2.2 green because you can teach it faster because students already understand demand."
Pending
If teachers ensure students practice and understand topic 2.3 (elasticity), then topics 2.4 and 2.5 will be taught much quicker.
"Make sure students practice, spend time making sure they get it. It makes 2.4 and 2.5 go so much quicker."
Pending
Students who understand topic 2.3 (elasticity) will also understand topic 2.4.
"if students get 2.3, they're going to understand 2.4."
Pending
Students who understand topic 2.8 (taxes, ceilings, and floors) will also understand topic 2.9 (international trade).
"If students understand 2.8, they're going to understand 2.9, the idea of international trade with imports and exports. If students get the one, they're going to get the other."
Pending
Students will encounter cost curves again when studying perfect competition, monopolies, and monopolistic competition.
"because they're going to see it again when you do perfect competition, and then again when you do monopolies and monopolistic competition."
Pending
Students will not fully apply concepts like maximizing profit and the shutdown rule until they reach topic 3.7 (perfect competition).
"These are all things students don't really fully apply until you get to topic 3.7, perfect competition."
Pending
Students who better understand concepts in Unit 3 (specifically 3.7) will perform better in Unit 4.
"the better they understand these concepts, the better they're going to do well in unit four."
Pending
If teachers do not spend enough time on Unit 3, students will be confused in Unit 4.
"if you didn't spend enough time in unit 3 to rush through it, students are still going to be confused here."
Pending
If teachers spend enough time on topic 4.2 (drawing monopolies), then topic 4.3 (price discriminating monopolies) will be easier to teach.
"If you spend time there, then 4.3 is easier."
Pending
If students understand single-price monopolies (4.2), they will also understand price-discriminating monopolies (4.3).
"if students understand the first one, they'll understand the second one."
Pending
Students will eventually understand game theory through repeated practice.
"And eventually over time, they're like, 'Oh, okay. We get how to do this.'"
Pending
Students who were comfortable with supply and demand in Unit 2 will also be comfortable with the resource market in Unit 5.
"If students felt comfortable back in unit 2 with supply and demand, they're going to feel comfortable here."
Pending
Monopsinies will not be a highly important topic on the AP Microeconomics exam.
"It's just not that important when it comes to AP exam."
Pending
Unit 3 (Production, Costs, and Perfect Competition) will have approximately twice the importance or weighting on the AP Microeconomics exam compared to Unit 6 (Market Failures and Public Policy).
"Unit 3 is like twice as important as unit 6."
Pending
The author might release an updated version of the pacing guide in the future.
"I may make an updated version of this someday."
