    Exam Content

    As we will finish the current topics on both sides of the course, all topics that we have studied are therefore fair game for the mock. Please bear in mind that the very early topics on both sides have a lot less technical content in them and are therefore less likely to be assessed in a detailed way than the latter ones.

    Microeconomics:

    1. The Economic Problem
    2. Demand and Supply
    3. Price System
    4. Elasticity
    5. Market Mechanism
