Does anybody know how closely the podcasts correspond to the live lectures this term?
I know that in the podcasts, we always assumed NCO > 0, but does that assumption still hold true for this term? (since the uploads are a few terms old)

I dont remember the NCO specifics, but I didnt go to a single class for macro and studied solely from the book and the podcast and there was nothing on the exam that i hadnt seen. As a matter of fact, I still got a 12 lol .So im guessing the podcast cover pretty much every thing said in the lecture and correspond to the lectures.

I'm pretty sure last semesters macro exam was 3 hours long. This semesters is probably around the same length.

Unfortunately the only couple of macro classes this term that I missed are the ones including NCO but I know that in the review today she was explaining a question from the text and said "now if I were giving you this question I would say that NCO is positive and stays positive" because that made the question more clear. So Im pretty sure she'll tell you, and I'm pretty sure she's in favour of keeping it >0.

No unfortunately she just did that thing where she answers questions from the text that you're having trouble with. But I know that in class she said it was gonna be like:
80 MC
5 S.A. worth 25 marks
and the whole thing covers ch 5-15, but the majority of the test will be 11-15 since that stuff hasn't been tested on yet
