    yeah my teacher was very good. Cut down the course so we've basically been studying the same stuff since before the mocks. Should be ok. Need to look back over the multiplier because I messed that up in the mocks and it's easy marks.
    We've covered the whole course about 3/4 times in full! Yet he refused to give any sort of predictions; Just "that could come up!" to everything.. <_<

    really? We went through most of it but when 6th year started there was complete prioritisation given to imperfect comp, capital etc.

    Yeah it's either gonna be really hard or quite an easy paper. I've gotten to a point where i couldnt care less anymore, and have decided to focus on Demand, Supply, Elasticity and Imperfect competition because thats bound to be two questions there


    My Predictions for tomorrow, lets hope i get them spot on like Accounting

    1. Demand and Possibly Diminshing Marginal Utility
    2. Imperfect competition with a comparison between it and Monoploy and Perfect competition
    3. Elasticity
    4. Capital as a FOP, maybe with a combination of Land
    5. National Income
    6. International Trade
    7. The Government - Monetary and Recession
    8. Current Affairs ie employment, inflation banks create credit.

    -0.1 was definitely petrol. -1.6 Meat, and +4.3 iphones
    Ya i got 80000 sales, seemed too easy though, i did it in 30 seconds, with an explanations and workings
    Ya i agreed with C - Price Wars, Brand Proliferation, Competitive Advertising as reasons
    I did Q4, messed me up but ill get over it

    wahheyyy I think I got those elasticites right. I was bit worried in the exam cos there was a lot of marks going for them and they're a bit hit and miss, you could end up with no marks!

    I disagreed with the market structure too, can't believe I didn't think of enough reason, I think I only had 3 and one of them was a stupid one
