Midterm Exam #1 (Oct 27) – Program and Note on Topic 7

The program for Midterm Exam #1, scheduled for October 27 (written) and October 29–30 (oral), covers Topics 1–7 of the Syllabus (slides 1–133).
Please note that, regarding Topic 7 (Open Economies), since exercises on versions 1–2 of the Mundell–Fleming model have not been covered extensively in class, the written exam will not include exercises on this topic. There may only be theoretical questions on it, in either the written or the oral exam.
Best regards,
Alessandro Piergallini
