Does anyone know a good source of exercises for micro (apart from mas-colell) and macro to practice for first year comprehensive exams? With solutions if possible.
Any books, websites...
Thanks

Varian's Analysis is a good text. You can download the solution manual from the Internet too (at least that's what I did).

For macro:

Stokey, Lucas and Prescott's Recursive Methods on Economic Dynamics with its corresponding solutions manual by Claudio Irigoyen, Esteban Rossi-Hansberg and Mark Wright.

Not all programs cover this material with the level of depth of this book, but if yours does, then these texts are very useful.

look at Maryland. years ago they had an amazing website with comps and solutions from many years but I don't have time to find it for you.

Thank you all.
The Maryland's website is a great source. I just found one for macro. Did you remember seeing one for micro too?
Here it is just in case someone else is interested.
