AP Microeconomics-Lecture series Unit 4: Imperfect Competition

This course is the fourth in a series of six that together cover the complete Microeconomics curriculum outlined by the College Board for the AP exam. By dividing the curriculum into six mini-courses, students have the flexibility to either complete the full AP Microeconomics sequence or focus on specific units where they need additional support (if they are concurrently enrolled in a microeconomics course at their high school and require extra help).

The AP Microeconomics curriculum includes 6 units: 
UNIT 1: Basic Economic Concepts 
UNIT 2: Supply and Demand 
UNIT 3: Production, Cost, and the Perfect Competition Model 
UNIT 4: Imperfect Competition 
UNIT 5: Factor Markets 
UNIT 6: Market Failure and the Role of Government 

This course will focus on Unit 4-Imperfect Competition . This unit represents 15–22% AP Exam Weighting.  Throughout this course, students will engage with economic theory and develop the skills to create, interpret, and apply economic models and graphs effectively.

The learning approach combines a lecture in which the theoretical background of the topic is presented (lesson 1 of the week), followed by applications (lesson 2 of the week) with a focus on problem-solving (practical exercises, case studies, additional readings).
