No worries. It's not a huge advantage, but I'm sure it helps to some extent!

A level Economics seems to be mainly micro- I looked at a revision textbook for A level econ and it does come helpful though, especially when you move onto production and costs.

Yeah...it seems like that! but for me, AS level was mostly micro

Our school does AQA economics and our topic were micro , macro (well the national economy) and the third option we picked was the housing market.

I like A2 i lot more than AS, we're doing things like business economics and international trade...its good stuff :p:

Micro is very much the same at A level whereas Macro is extremely different.

Your subjects somewhat resemble those in Bsc Management, first year. that's cool :wink:

Btw. have all of you seen that they have changed usual standard offer for almost all subjects. It is 37 now, and almost everywhere 766 HL. Do you know does this include bonus? :s-smilie:

I had a look and Accounting and Finance and Management seem to share a lot of the same topics...

I was gonig to apply but the fact i did all "science" subjects stopped me :rolleyes:

Hi there, How does Economics and AccFin compare in terms of similarity? i know that a few modules are the same in the first year, but how about the rest? there doesnt seem to be many here applying for the AccFin course :frown:

.
oh and in general is it the higher the Math content the harder the course in general? (good question Death Eater, i think in most universities its like 60% that get 1/2.1, i think that people who work their ass off get 1st lol, i think 2late is a little too relaxed lol i saw that dancing thing and you can do that :O:O you are soooo okewl :smile:
