Just had my job interview. :smile:
Now I've got a maths assignment, two chemistry homeworks, a French essay, some French past paper questions and some biology homework. :eek:
I haven't even been getting that much work apart from in Psychology :smile:

Me neither, the workload hasn't increased much compared to GCSE for me.
Although teachers are setting deadlines for the next day or the day after a lot more.

ah I know! It sucks :frown: When people said it was a step up for GCSE's I never believed them. But, now I know what they meant. :frown: Soooo much work! :frown:


Yup :sad: Still, half term is coming up soon! Hopefully there won't be too much work then... :tongue:
Can anyone help me with this economics question or know where I can get some help:smile:!
The world supply curve for tea is likely to shift left if there is an increase in:
A- the price of tea
B-wages of tea pickets
C-subsidies to tea producers
D-coffee prices

Any help would be much appreciated :biggrin:

Okay a shift to the left in supply would mean the cost price going up so it would be B, the price would cause a movement alone the curve, subsidies would lower the price thus increasing supply and a shift to the right and coffee wouldn't have an effect :smile:

Thinking back to my economics lessons, I think it's B. Price doesn't shift the supply curve, it causes an extension/contraction. Subsidies will increase supply, causing it to shift to the right (not the left). And an increase in coffee prices will just decrease the demand of coffee so less will need to be supplied. So i think it's B. :tongue: I'm not 100% sure though (so correct me if I'm wrong, someone), I haven't done economics for a while now. :tongue:

Ah, not too bad. :smile: How did it go? Well, my school has decided to test everyone in every lesson to see whether they are suited to their course or not! I'm just revising for my maths tomorrow. :/

Heys! Welcome to the thread :smile: . Have you tried using CGP books for the subects then doing the answer booklet based on that?

In addition, everytime you learn something in class spend at least 1 hour on that topic so you get the hang of it
