I had John Scott for AP Microeconomics. The concepts in the class are relatively easy compared to other AP classes. The class focuses on types of firms/industries and maximizing efficiency/profit. PowerPoints, videos, and lectures were used to present the information. The class has limited math and no calculators are used on tests. While the concepts themselves are mostly easy, the workload is a bit of a burden. Everyday, the class had worksheets for you to do. Some days, there were like 12 pages of homework, but other days, there were like 2 pages. Along with this, you also had textbook reading around 75% of the days. In summary, a class with simple concepts and a workload that puts a bit of a burden.

I found John Scott to be a pretty good teacher. Everybody, he provided an easy-to-follow lecture with good examples to represent the concepts. Oftentimes, he will repeat information which makes it easy to understand all of the concepts needed by the time the test comes up. He will also post all resources online. When students ask questions, he is always willing to answer them completely and clearly.
