This course follows the AP Microeconomics course but at a more manageable pace, with optional challenging concepts that might or might not be covered based on students' needs. Different from macroeconomics, microeconomics focuses on the study of individual decisions and individual markets, learning about scarcity and supply and demand. It is suggested to take the two courses together as they are taught together at BHS and require similar critical thinking skills.
