what does outsourcing mean?

It's where you allow some aspect of your business, such as the production, to be done by another company, so you pay them to do it for you, maybe to cut down on fixed costs.

Awhr, but I am Nah I am joking, I also sat A level economics last year, so that helps...

I get my knowledge from tutor2u, Nelson Thomas text book, Dynamic learning text book, Phillip Allan text book and own intuition. I have a lot of text books to make up for my lack of teacher...

I guess you could have meant one of these though, although I don't think any of them are that big...

Wow, you use all those books when im only using the CGP guide which is about 80 pages ... but imo I think the exams are more about the technique than the knowledge so yeah..

But who marks your answers so that you know how well your doing?

Ask your school/college. Some do, some don't. I think you should be able to as they are already entering candidates for the same exams and you have already been registered as a student their.

My brother, they came with a mark scheme thing. Also I can email some essays to my old economics teacher, which I am going to use to my advantage for unit 4.
