Read the business section in the newspaper, and when they give you a question regarding numbers, e.g; Population changed from 1mill to 2mill in 2009, use percentages to express your answers, (% increase or decrease), thats what my eco teacher told us, and she is undergrad from LSC.

Listen for Eco. P3
All u need to know is simple defintions and read the case study pretty well.
Cuz all the answers are from the case study. Theres nothing  u can bring from ur own. Just do some past papers and ull get used to it!
Its gonna be easy ;)
HOPEFULLY!
Avoid the last minute rush!!!!
Fail your exams NOW!!!!!

Dont use ur textbook. Or alteast my textbook sucks.
There is also no need for the textbook in paper 3.
LISTEN U GUYZ!
Paper 3 will have 1 or 2 BASIC and SHORT definitions about anything and the rest will be from the case study.
There is no need to study from the notebook for P3, however this is required in paper2. (structured questions)
ALL the answers to the questions in P3 will be from the case studies and frankly theyre all simple.
Its either "Is there enough evidence....?" or "Do u agree with the spokesman about the ....?"
You will need to refer to the case study and use your commonsense. Hope this helped ;)

Economics: A complete Course for IGCSE and O LEVEL. It is black.
