Did anyone else find the extracts to be quite useless, along with the crap figure?

yeah the extracts were so bad. But i only used the figure in my 15 marker i referenced how sweden have a better CAP law meaning they can get more fish than the UK which means that they can outpreform the UK in the fishing industry

I think i talked about all the right things, context was the only thing i really struggled to find. Also i did the 5 marker twice, i thought i was wrong at first but i was right but i had done another one during the exam on a spare piece of paper. However i didnt cross the first one out, would u think they would take the first one?

i think they will be more lenient, almost everyone i know could barely add any context from within the extract

Did anyone talk about minimum prices for the 20 marker (Edexcel)? I’m not sure if it’s correct

I did 3 points: minimum price, indirect tax and extended property rights. But now I’m not sure whether a minimum price was correct

i wish i did 3 points, do u know if 2 points can cap your marks?
id say min price is a good point, like did u desccribe the graph and talk about demand rationed. and then excess supply
its good coz it still reduces what gov aimed

I think it’s unlikely for u to get 20 with just 2 points unless they’re perfect but 16-18 is definitely possible, I’ve done it a couple of times
