How did everyone find eduqas paper 1? I thought it was quite difficult.

The multiple choice questions were so difficult. but i found the 6 and 8 markers fine.

I talked about rising incomes from more growth, however its bad and it creates a dependency on commodities, I should of spoken about Dutch disease and resource curse

How did everyone find paper 2. I found the last three 10 markers to all be very similar. I definitely found part b more difficult than part a.

I agree it was all very samey. The comparative advantage question was so weird but i think i waffled enough to do alright

The road congestion/PPF curve question, we were supposed to mark a point beneath the curve rather than the whole curve shifting inwards right??

For the Demand/supply + road congestion question, we were supposed to show excess demand (due to the shortage of supply being the road) rather than demand shifting to the right (due to increasing demand causing increasing usage of the road and hence increasing road congestion) right?
