A2 AQA Economics Unit 3 (ECON3) 11th June 2015

I wondered if someone could help me! I have a question and I don't understand, how could an increase in growth worsen inequality? Could someone explain a chain of analysis that could be used and evaluation for it, I will be eternally grateful! I think the microeconomic questions are so so hard this year, if any of you have any tips on how to gain above 21 in the 25 markers I will also be eternally grateful as I seem to constantly be getting 19-21 and never above!

19-21 is not bad and under exam conditions it would be difficult to reach those levels so I would be pleased with those results. Analysis and evaluation depends on the question and case study (if it is section A)

Yeah I know, I am pleased but am desperately trying to get an A* which means dropping 8 marks overall, meaning I need to get at least 22 in both 25 markers to allow me to drop a couple of marks in the 15 potentially. Do you know anything about the inequality/growth situation?

If you set a question and provide your plannings then I can help. If you are getting 19-21 you are likely to get the correct analysis and evaluation but further expansion might be needed as well as a conclusion

Ok, well a question maybe along the lines of,
'Economic growth always lead to increased inequality' evaluate whether this statement is correct? (25)
And oh ok thank you, so you think perhaps more evaluation to do with the real world and a strong conclusion could lift me up to 22/23, when I ask my teacher he's not always very helpful with how to structure it and what I did wrong!

If that's the case you need to demand for him to expand on why he has given you the mark you got. When marking scripts I need to write a summary at the end of every paper indicating the reason for the level I have chosen.
Provide the planning for your question and I can help fill in the gaps.

I was sat for an hour and a half yesterday asking but I still really don't understand, are you a teacher? I'm half tempted to write out the essay and the mark he gave me for it and see what you would give me as I've heard in the past he's a harsh marker which makes me think I could potentially be overly stressing about nothing

I can give pointers if you type it here. If I have time I can mark it.

Slightly off topic, but why does this comment say you posted in 1970? :facepalm:

I am afraid my sight is not as good as it was before. I have problems reading pictures attached and it doesn't help I use a mobile phone.
