Go back to sleep and continue to dream, or wake up and chase those dreams.

hey you are from which JC? very common not to do well in school for Economics de. pratice your mcq (because the questions are roughly the same throughout the years) and for the essay section, do your essay outline b4 you start writing ur essay. For me, before any econ test, i mainly study those essay outline given to me ... not the notes.

Yeah, there is Economics subject for O Level, but this is not for Singaporeans.

It is only for Malaysians (SPM - Malaysian equivalent to O level here). and UK (GCSE)..

I think it is good idea for Sec 3 and 4 to learn Econ as a O level subject..

Oh,... I guess you are private candidate..

Because I had gone thru SEAB website, and found that school candidate don't offer Econ as O level. Only Private Candidate can take..

haha...and many many students are forced to take it as a FREAKING CONTRASTING SUBJECT.....which has dunno served what purpose...and sec schools should give the students a peep into what the subject teaches before making us choose it as a FREAKING LAST RESORT

haha my school is one of the few schools that offers econs for o level too
I wanted to choose that subject but i was told that many didn't do well for it and that what you learn for 2 years would probably be thought in 2 weeks in jc.
Anyway the textbook is so expensive and heavy and wordy haha..
