    So I have all the shorts qs and long qs. 1-3 for the past 10 years. But I am at the stage where I need to choose which qs I should focus now. As with what I have done, that will only cover me 325 marks(thats if I even get it all right). Is there any parts you can bluff in the long qs. What qs shall I study now, that is repetitive.

    Thanks

    Do National Income, International Trade, Taxation (including budget deficit and national debt stufff). Then you should be good to go.

    Well if you do geography you could possibly bluff the population question however, from the chief examiners report the population question was the most poorly answered question on the paper in one of the Leaving certs a few years ago. This could be because people tried applying their geography to economics and failed badly. Ultimately if you want to get the A1 you need to be bulletproof, so I would kinda stay away from bluffing. Keep looking at the MARKING SCHEMES too. I hope that helped.

    Still can't wrap my head around measuring the national income. Worth skipping?

    Yeah bother understanding that it's a load of bull****. Just look at the past papers which involve parts of measuring the national income.
