I'm studying A2 economics this years and I've just found it such an interesting subject. For my exam board (I presume it's similar for them all) you study a microeconomic unit and a macro unit each year, in my opinion the micro stuff is a bit more theoretical whereas the macro stuff you can see it happening around you, particularly if you watch the news because you can see how the economy as a whole is affected.
The subject goes with lots of combinations, what else are you planning on studying? Also I know a lot of people are worried about the maths content, but in A level economics there is hardly any so if that's worrying you, don't let it :smile:
