    Don't worry I take it this is stuff like supply and demand? Just think of things like the substitute good and how if the price of it goes up, the demand for your good will go up KEEP THINKING ABOUT HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR GOOD!!!

    As for Elasticity, just think of abd elastic band, seemed to help me! Either way don't worry, I'm repeating and didn't do a lot of economics until the last week before the exam and got a D2, they mark it easy in comparison to most!

    Just keep going over them again and again!
    Also test yourself on short questions from exam papers, and your workbook, best way to learn them roe.

    I would have to disagree with you there. Economics is incredibly easy to lose marks in. There is rarely one set of correct answers (unless asked to define something) and you generally have a lot of freedom, but if you waffle or fail to logically explain something, then you'll undoubtedly lose a hefty amount of marks.

    As with all subjects though, if it's touch and go as to whether you'll get an E or a D, then they'll mark you much easier.

    Actually if you know your stuff I think you'd be fine, I practically took up the course in the last week and waffled a lot and only attempted 2 long qs and a few shorts and got the D2. I guess if u can be specific it's helpful, it's not a hard subject since I'm doing it properly now and getting As so far.
