Good luck.

The one I use the most in short run and long run effects. It mainly depends on the question.
For supply-side policies,
it doesn't work in a recession, with lots of spare capacity within the economy and also there are time lags.
It's also expensive to fund!
I hate Balance of Paymentts

Any body could tell me what can we write as evaluation point?
Evaluate the reason why government budget deficit will lead less proportional change in AD. It seems link to multiplier effect but how can I evaluate this kind of question?

Definition, diagram and briefly explain what the question is asking you I.e If it asks you how can government use policies to increase economic growth you'd say what policies they can use so fiscal, monetary and supply side.
Point 1 - 4 marks
Evaluate - 4 marks
Point - 4 marks
Evaluate - 4 marks
Point - 4 marks

Good generic evaluations:
Time lag
Opportunity cost
Depends on elasticity A/S
Depends on current interest rate
How do we know the firms will spend the subsidy on things to improve output
Things like that
Stick to that and you'll get 30 arks every time (depending on your content)

What is nominal and real GDP? I get mixed up with the 2.
Is real GDP the value adjusted for inflation and nominal the value that has not been adjusted for inflation?

Does elasticity vary along a supply curve like it does for a demand curve?

The vertical bit of the A/S curve is inelastic and the horizontal part is elastic.

If you mean the aggregate supply curve then yes.

Then I would write the following:
Point one: high employment
Evaluation: lots of pollution implies lots of manufacturing industry which means a bad income distribution.
Point two: higher living standards
Evaluation: more pollution may mean this isn't true
Point three: bigger government tax revenue
Evaluation: economic growth can lead to inflation which means the bigger revenue won't have as much of an impact.

Anyone know all the graphs we have to do?
All I can think of is aggregate supply, aggregate demand. Is that it?

I think that's all. Other than PPF to show economic growth, they might give extra credit on the phillips curve like in the June 2013 paper.

I've gone through Past Papers: June 2013 June 2012 June 2011, as well as, January 2013 January 2012 January 2011. I wish to go on to 2010 and 2009 papers but they look so weird and alienated in comparison to 11/12/13 
Would I regret it heavily by not going over the 2010 and 2009 papers? I know I sound lazy but I really don't want to do something that isn't worth doing.
