look nothing has really changed, just the paper numbers
so now

multiple choice is paper 1
structured questions is paper  2
analysis and critical evaluation is paper 3

also, for paper 3 (analysis and critical evaluation), you write on the SAME PAPER, not on lined paper.

thats all!! you can download the specimen paper to know what im talking about here :

Guys i think this year there is no CORE for economics . Last year there was papers 1 to 6 but this year its only 3 meaning the core papers are now also the extended. my teacher said there is no core for this year . so i think its going to be easier.. wat do u think??

Yeah they did.

There is no core anymore, it's just one now.

Paper 3, 4, 6 used to be for extended.
Others were core.

paper 3 (MCQ's) is now paper 1
there are gonna be 30 questions instead of 40.

paper 4 (structured questions) is now paper 2.
paper 6 (analysis and evaluation) is now paper 3.

so you need to practice the old ones, i.e, paper 3/paper 4/paper 6.

Hope that helped, lol.
