Stop studying everything. Start studying what matters.

Structured economics prep that helps you understand the course, practice the right questions, and know whether you are actually ready for the midterm.

Get the Midterm Review — $50

Study with a plan, not a pile of notes.

The goal is not more study hours. It is making the hours you already spend actually useful.

Know what matters

Review the concepts you need for the exam using on-demand concept videos. We look at each concept based on how it will be tested on the exam. This is not about having a full, in-depth understanding of each course concept, but about knowing what you need to know for the exam.

Practice the right way

For each concept we use exam style example problems in our teaching. You get to try an exam style question for every concept and, if you get stuck, there is a video walkthrough for you.

Test your readiness

Two mock exams let you find the gaps before the real midterm does, which is generally the preferable order of discovery.

How the Midterm Review works

A simple path from “I have notes” to “I know what I can do under exam conditions.”

Review, Practice, Test, Ask study flow

Built for students who can work independently.

This Midterm Review gives you the plan, explanations, practice, mock exams and live Q&A. You decide when to work through it and keep yourself moving.

You’ll probably be a good fit if you:

  • can follow a study plan on your own
  • mainly need clarity on what to study and how to practice
  • want strong exam prep without a scheduled daily structure

Worried you won’t actually stay on track?

If focus, accountability, procrastination, or knowing what to do each day is the bigger problem, the Exam Intensive is designed for that.

It adds scheduled work, live teaching, feedback and much more active accountability.

Everything you need to prepare for COMM 171 on your own.

Your $50 Midterm Review includes:

  • Topic review videos that walk through the material you need to understand
  • Worked examples and practice questions so you can apply the concepts
  • Knowledge checks to confirm you actually understand what you just reviewed
