The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.

Economics 302: Macroeconomic Analysis

Midterm Exam

General Information:

The midterm exam will be offered on the evening of Thursday, March 3rd. The exam will be closed-book and closed-notes. It will cover material from the first three parts of the course: the Introduction, Growth, and Behavior. Concepts from lecture, the readings, the problem sets, and the quizzes may appear on the midterm.

The exam will have three sections: a series of multiple-choice questions (like the quizzes), a set of "true/false/uncertain" questions, and a set of "essay" questions (like the problem sets, and which may require algebriac manipulation or simple numerical computations). You will have two hours available for the midterm.

The midterm exam is being offered at the above date and time only. An unexcused absence from the midterm exam will result in a failing grade for the course. Do not enroll for this course if you are unable to take the exam as scheduled.
