overall i find the subject quite interesting and i like how you can apply it to current news, it is quite difficult so i recommend revisiting flashcards almost everyday, if you’re in year 12 i recommend making flashcards as you go along! hope this helps, if you any questions or concerns you can just message me :smile:

i do aqa econ, edexcel politics and aqa sociology, i recommend econ as a challenging subject, ngl it’s not going be as easy but it’s definitely doable and if you work hard you can definitely get an A*/A! all my subjects are content-heavy because they’re all essay based but i like writing so i knew that my subjects were going to have a lot of writing all in all i enjoy my subjects. But please also do more research if you’re considering econ or any other subject in general !!! hope this helps

OMG I am thinking of picking all your subjects that you have picked and they all have same examboard can you lmk thoughts on them like which is the easiest which means answering questions revising getting the top grades compared to other subjects and the content is ok like out of your subjects which you find most difficult don’t recommend at all then lmk the opposite to that thanks and lmk what you got in your gcse your grades and put examboard next to it that’ll do

most difficult is econ i think, politics is just content heavy and it’s relatively easy to understand

Explain how you find econ the most difficultist and does politics have more content then sociology and is sociology easier to master bc I heard both are content heavy econ has bare confusing graphs apparently and also what were your gcses and exambaord then put grade next to it thanks and do you know anyone that does edexcel business and aqa sociology because wanna know which has more content and is easier

tbh it’s mostly the content, but once you get the hang of it you’ll be fine, not too sure about edexcel business may do some research m?
