No 209: tutor2u prediction of key areas for Module 4

THIS morning tutor2u contains a prediction of possible contexts that could turn up in the exam:

  • The consequences for the UK economy should the US economy experience a double-dip recession
  • The economic consequences for the UK of natural disasters such as flood, drought, tsunami (external shocks) and economics of global price volatility
  • The fast-changing role of the Chinese economy and its implications for the UK
  • The impact on the UK economy of major instability of the euro
  • The impact on the UK economy of the newer membership of the EU 

This link connects to the tutor2u post, which also contains links to presentations about the above topics and exam advice.

On exam advice, this is what they say about ending your essay:

A conclusion is essential and should not just repeat earlier points.
A supported final judgement is a criterion in the Level 5 mark band (i.e. to get 22+)
Leave yourself 4-5 minutes for a final judgement of 5-6 lines. This is time proportionately well spent. Try to incorporate a new idea, e.g. how a policy may impact on different parties; how the policy may have different short v long run effects.
