    A Level Econ Exam Board
    I'm wondering what the best/ good/ bad examining boards are for Economics A-Level.

    My Sixth Form options provide either OCR or Edexcel - in your experience/ knowledge of the area, what do you think the better board is?

    General comments on the board and their Economics course is welcomed.

    [PS I am posting this same thread in the maths and computing forums for relevant answers, don't be surprised if you see a near identical thread elsewhere]

    Edexcel require the answers to multiple choice questions to be explained. My school eventually switched to AQA because of this.

    Best thing to do is to find some exam papers for the syllabuses on offer and see which you prefer.
