I just don’t like paper 1 content tbh. Theme 3 is 🤮 for me to wish it was all macroeconomics lol.

I’m trying to not panic and be as relaxed as possible
Does anyone have any ideas on what could come up as a 25 marker?
Also how much own knowledge for application is required to get over 20 marks? (like do you need to go in depth?)

I can’t really guess the 25 markers but yes you need to go into the most depth for the 25 markers as there’s a total of 16 marks for KAA (level based marking) much higher than the second high mark question (15 marks with 9 available for KAA) - so yes

Probably just a refresh and relax
I think it might be tutor2u that has a bunch of new practice questions based on the advanced notice, my school bought them for us, I think they like £30 for the macro and £30 for micro, hopefully that helps for anyone looking for some practice q's

I am going to combust at this point I've barely started revision and don't know what to do and I just don't get micro, only took eco in a levels not in o levels so I'm like lost and even with the advance info I don't know what to do😥Plz help at this point any advice on how to cram atleast the topics in advance info will do
Also not doing very well with eval can someone tell me what exactly would count as eval or give like a solid sample answer so I get how to structure it well - for longer questions like 10, 12, 15 and 25mks. Does it have to be an it depends on point or even a however point will do because I've also been told however points are just part of analysis.
