Year 11 Economics work experience
hi there! Currently in year 11 and many of the other students are starting to get work experience. Was wondering if work experience really helps with university applications at this stage?
Looking to study Economics at university and currently based in London. Thank you!

Economics is an academic course so you don't need work experience. What you need to show is your interest in economics beyond the curriculum, so additional reading, MOOCs, podcasts, etc. Have a look at the super curricular suggestions for your subject on Cambridge's website - they are good for all unis.
