AQA ECON unit 1 predictions!

So,

Anyone like to share what they think could come up in the 25 marker?

Spec says:

'Students should be able to apply economic models to assess the role of markets and the government in areas such as health care, housing, agriculture and the European Union's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), transport and the environment.

From what I've noticed generally the questions are always worded in 4 ways.
1. 'Evaluate the case for and against govt intervention...'
2. 'Evaluate the case for and against market provision with little govt intervention....'
3. 'Evaluate the case for and against charging for... (e.g.higher education/nhs services)'
4. 'Evaluate the best govt policy in order to...'

(The first two are basically just market vs govt provision, but worded differently, right?)

Anyways last year it was on the case for charging for higher education and whether govts should intervene in market for mobile phones or not.

What do you guys think?
government intervention seems to come up a lot..

maybe something on min/max pricing?

The paper was written 12-18 months ago. Highly unlikely esp considering this is a micro paper to have an international focus.
Demerit goods hasn't come up for a while. I was thinking possibly something on cigarettes/e-cigarettes? Price stability/volatile commodity markets, health care, house prices
