A Level Economics
Hey so I'm taking economics next year for a level and i would like to hear the experiences of people who have studied it? I want to go into politics/ir and am taking politics and history alongside economics. What's the course like, difficulty, topics, maths involved, interest etc.
The Maths is easy if you have achieved at least a B or above in Maths GCSE.
There is Data Response and MCQs in some papers and a fair bit of essay writing with an emphasis on evaluation.
There is quite a lot of information available on the examboards websites and especially Tutor2U Economics:
https://www.tutor2u.net/economics/reference
Oxford PPE is doable without Maths A-Level but Economics and Management will require Maths and perhaps more Maths in the form of Further Maths.
Only Cambridge, LSE, UCL and Warwick want Further Maths at AS or ideally A-Level. But it doesn't hurt to have Maths and Further Maths if you can handle them A-Levels.
