6 MARK economics questions

I've been trying for months and still can't get a full 6/6 on any 6 mark question from the iGCSE economics question papers. Can anyone give me an easy solution to remember how to write these?

Sorry to see that you have not had a response to this so far.

My question to you is, what do you need to get a 6/6?

Is it a case of practicing answering fhese questions and revising your knowledge for every single topic? Or is it a case of requiring extra research? Or a certain way of writing or structuring it?

Ultimately it comes down to practice but you or your teacher should be in the best place to answer this.
It maybe a bit late to answer your question but what I do is this. For example, the question is: Do the advantages of division of labour always outweigh the disadvantages for a firm? Explain your answer.

To answer this question, the first paragraph would be to give an advantage of division of labour and develop that advantage. Next I would state another advantage.

The second paragraph would be to mention a disadvantage of division of labour and develop that disadvantage. I would again state another disadvantage.

My third paragraph would a conclusion/evaluation. Here, I suggest using the phrase "it depends on".

As an economics student, I can see where you are coming from, but practice makes perfect!

Hi I wanted to ask if application is important and if it carries marks like when you apply 'Division of Labour' top company A which produces XYZ. Is it necessary to include application in your answer? I'm talking about the old spec (A*-G) not the new one (9-1) Also if anyone has any model answers that I could use top study that would be great!
