AP Microeconomics & AP Macroeconomics

We bring economics to life through real-world case studies, interactive graphs, charts, and data analysis helping students not only understand but also explain and apply core principles.

In AP Microeconomics, the focus is on individual decision-making within an economic system, while AP Macroeconomics zooms out to explore how entire economies function on a national and global scale.

AP Economics courses starts July October and January 2025
