How do you get an A/A* in a level economics

Original post by lacouile

But in general economics is the same across all exam boards. Firstly, KNOW your content inside out and this is because econ is SOOOO content heavy and some topics are difficult to understand imo. Secondly, blurting on a whiteboard is your best friend. This will alllw you to understand what your gaps are. Thirdly, you want as much exam practice as you can but first you need to learn exam technique. Also if you want any more tips add me at inteuu3 on tiktok

welll literally every a level is memorisation. I did bio and chem and econ this summer and a levels are literally just pure memorisations with exam questions.

You just need to know the content inside and out with econ. Also with content I mean LEARN YOUR DIAGRAMS. they are your bread and butter with any essay because it showcases you can develop your economics. Also your essay skills get gradually better it’s just about exams

I also like chem more than all my subjects but with that I found a great YouTuber called machemguy that’s where I learned all my content. My teachers were really good but I learn better from videos idk why. After that you HAVE to do exam questions not papers. Papers are too soon for you now you need to do them later in year 13. Mark strictly aswell.
