How do you plan out 15/20 markers?

For 20 Markers, i suggest revising Market failure and gov intervention in depth (benefits and problems with each type of intervention). Make 3 points in relation to the question, and evaluate each point. For 15 Marker, i would do a similar thing structure wise to the 20 Marker. Revise all of the longer topics on the specification e.g. price mechanism, elasticity, specialisation and division of labour. These are probably the most likely sections to come up for the long answer questions (e.g. 6,10 and 15 markers)

Guys are there any diagrams that illustrate the price mechanism functions?

Otherwise I just find it too brief for a 15 marker!
