2024 AP Macro FRQ Answers (Set 1) 

You've done justice for me Mr.Clifford, my glorious king, got 95% of these frqs correct.

my teacher sadly didnt teach the reserve market because we only do textbooks... rip...

Will you go over macro set 2?

Mr. Clifford, I want to thank you for all of your videos. I am a freshman taking my first AP, and my teacher didn't teach any of the AP Curriculum, leading me to have to self-study. I studied for 10 hours a week for three months. Thanks to all of your videos and the URP, I think I scored very well and earned a 5. I am immensely grateful for you. Thank you so much.

Can you do sets 2 my exams were different pls

Thank you so much for your help, Mr Clifford. I am a freshman who self-studied and I was able to answer these questions because of your videos.

I watched your N/RD triangle video two days before the exam, and it really helped me get the whole GDP section correct. Thank you (and the student who created it) so much!

I just received my score today, I only watched your videos 1 week before the test and studied nothing else an I got a 4 on AP Macro. Thank u so much!!!

I think I got everything right! I did the whole review packet and a bunch of old college board FRQs for both micro and macro in the 4-5 days leading up to each exam to review and asked my awesome teacher Mr. Clark any questions that I had and I think going through the study guides really helped me figure out where I needed to focus my time and which topics to have my teacher re-explain during class! I think I only missed one part on Micro too so that's super exciting!

Thanks for everything papa cliff. You 100% raised my score a whole point or 2.

I got every FRQ question correct, due to me studying the reserve market extensively. Confident I got a 5 thanks to your reviews 🙏

Pls do set 2

Mr. Clifford, for the FOREX question I drew both the demand increasing AND the supply decreasing on the same graph, do you think I would still get the point? Thanks!

got a 30/30 ty goat!

MR CLIFFORD YOU SAVED ME 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💪🏼✅✅ THE ULTIMATE REVIEW PACKT SLAYEDDD

International student here. I got the same stuff but with different names and values and I guess a few changes. They never release the international papers. They didn't for AP CSA last year but ig it's basically the same thing lol

Would decreasing the discount rate work for the policy rate graph? If not, would I get the next point if I drew the shifts on the graph right?

For the reserve graph instead of putting PR 1 and 2 I put AR 1 and 2 would I get marked off?

For the forex market instead of putting demand for MYR i put quantity of MYR demanded and quantity of MYR supplied. Will my grader count the point if everything else in the graph is right?

mr clifford on the reserve market graph i did the shift correctly, but i labeled the curves ms and md, and the x axis q of money. will i not get 1 pt for that?

I got everything right

Hey, thanks for this breakdown! It looks like I might have gotten everything correct! Except.. for 1e I said decrease administered rates but lowered the entire Dr curve 😅. The points I used on the Policy Rate axis were Discount Rate 1 down to Discount Rate 2 and IoR 1 down to IoR 2. Would I lose out on the point?

For question 3 part c I indicated both a decrease in supply and an increase in demand? Would I still get the point?

I think I got 4 on this exam thx mr Clifford

THANK GOD i actually kinda did well on the frq especially 2nd & 3rd

I put quantity of yen for my forex market graph 🤦‍♂️ I had the right exchange on the side and believe even put ringgit market will they take a point off for that? And I showed the increase in demand do I get the point for that since the graph labeling was off

Hi Jacob, I self studied for the macro ap exam using your urp and all the videos, thank you so much for your help! I have a small question for the frq, I listed my calculations but did not set the wording equation, will they take marks off that?

Thanks for your help! I got all right… for the reserve market graph, I also shifted the top horizontal down… would I get points taken off?

I shifted the Discount Rate (top portion) down as well on my reserve graph in addition to the bottom portion (IOR), is that points off? Also, I shifted both the Demand to the right and the supply to the left simultaneously on the Forex Market Graph. Is that inaccurate? Thanks!

So if I said the real interest rates decreased on the third frq but I showed in the next graph that the demand for the ringgit decreased because of the lower interest rates I would still get the point for c?

Do you think they would accept an increase in demand for LF or does AP only want a decrease in supply of LF?

if we said for real wages that they should increase (from the pov of a worker), will we get the points?

For 3b could I say that demand in the LFM increased?

That GDP question tripped me up I completely forgot to study that 💀

For the reserve market graph, if i put the supply of reserves shifting left due to a lowering of interest on reserves would that be incorrect?

i feel like it was a week ago when i did my exams last year. now im back again just watching cos i love econ so much 🤣

I think I got most the points for 2 and 3 but was totally lost on the first one and got none right 😢 😊

When will you do micro set 2

100 ON FRQs 🔥(ultimate review packet enjoyer)

Are there consistency points for frq 3? I said real interest rates would decrease (massive brain fart) so parts c and d followed that reasoning PS your livestream saved my life on that exam

for the first frq could you say decrease policy rate instead of decrease interest on reserves?

HOLD UP! for #3 part b) I though crowding out occurs with an increase in deficit spending causing the DEMAND for loanable funds to INCREASE, which causes the real interest rate to increase, not the supply to decrease. Mr. Clifford, help I'm scared.

I think I will get a solid 4. My answers were similar. I might not get a 5 because I felt the MCQ were wordy and long. I

3:17 When you talked about the Nominal/Real GDP equation, you forgot to mention the ×100 in the equation but your answer has the ×100 factored in

in bangladesh we didn't get a single from these question sets that college board has released

For 3c can you draw MYR/JPY?

If gov increases deficit spending, wouldnt the demand for loanable funds increase?

number 1's unemployment rate cooked me i wrote the right answer 3 times and scribbled it out

how much percent of the exam do you need to get correct to at least get a three

For FRQ 2 I forgot to multiply by 100, Like GDP Deflator = (Nominal/Real) *100 i forgot the *100. So instead of 900000 I put 9000 stupidly, and then i used those numbers for the following. I still got, standard of living decreased and the inflation rate but I just forgot to multiply by 100, will that hurt my score alot?

the only question i got wrong was the inflation rate on #2... im actually so dumb broooo

I got like 2/3 of it right but the graphs that werent the basic aggregate demand one wrong 😭😭

My guy come help us in the IB

👍

i got cooked by reserve markets on the first one. full points on 2 and 3.

Ayy I didn’t do bad at all

For FRQ 2 d) i got 12.5% . Can someone explain why this is either wrong or agree with me that this is correct. 900,000-800,000/800,000 x 100 = 12.5 so i dont see how this could be incorrect

Yeah Im cooked, Im putting this stupid ample reserve graph in my suicide note

aced it

when do ap scores come out

I put 15 instead of 15%. does that matter?

hey for frq 2 (a) isn't it $9000?

Asia leaked before the exam a month ago😂

I don’t even remember the questions

Isn’t 1,035,000/115= 9000
