It's honestly quite difficult to give pointers, I'd need to be specific so you can actually understand how to improve and then include model answers so you can see what a 100% answer actually looks like.(Original post by BadundeBrian)
Honestly , I don't expect you to spend a whole hour on this, more of a quick 15 minute job would be sufficient - just a quick skim read and some pointers of how to improve. Thank you.
I mean very quickly:
+ you're structuring well, with paragraphs for your analysis and then separate ones for your evaluation
- but sometimes you mix two evaluations and points into one huge paragraph (e.g. second PES paragraph)
+ PED evaluation of profits is great
- lots of confusion with negative externalities
^but see like imo that is almost totally useless and isn't going to help you. I need to go into your work, explain exactly what's wrong, like there are several major misconceptions you have on negative externalities and your points don't lead anywhere - you don't seem to have a framework for answering these, particularly for evaluating.
I will help you properly as soon I have time! In the meantime, sort out your paragraphing + look into mark schemes re how to evaluate externalities.

I was wondering how to set out the 20 markers, I'm also not very good at expanding my evaluation points to get more than one mark, are there any expanded points i could use?

I don't think that's part of the syllabus. Perhaps impact on the current account? Trade will encourage greater exports and imports, it could also lead to greater FDI and other capital flows affecting the Financial Account.

Anyone know how to explain a multiple choice answer and if my way is correct?
Define whatever the question is about.
Apply it to the context of the question.
Explain why the answer is correct with an answer. -

Any chance of marking those questions before Saturday? It's just that my exam is on Monday, and I wanted to ensure I understand externalities questions fully as you said there was much confusion with those.

Do you guys know if we need to learn about buffer stocks or how to draw them because they come up a lot in the old edexcel spec but not sure about the new one

For theme 1 there is nothing in the new spec about buffer stocks, so you don't need to learn about it.

Oh and does doing old papers help? Because they are based off the old spec and the marks available for certain questions are different so I'm not sure whether or not it's useful to do the past papers
