Economics and A-level

What is economics like a A-level??? Is it heavily math based? Is it enjoyable and more importantly is it worth it?

In terms of maths, there is nothing apart from basic percentage changes. I would say it is enjoyable if you have an interest in economics/politics, and it is worth it if you are thinking of studying economics-related subject at University. Overall, it is a essay subject, so if you are good at that it is worthwhile doing it
