sorry to jump in on this convo but with everyone talking about eco,

how would you practice for the essay sections without like preparing full essays and plans (i do not have time for that right nowww)

like i was thinking of just writing practice essays on the spot

i’m rlly good with short answer, so like if i imagine the essay as made up of four 5 markers, like could that work … ??

idk it’s just that i feel so unprepared for that section so does anyone have tips on the quickest and most efficient way of prepping??

you did it the wrong way my guy. If you write essays on each topic short answers will be a breeze

Good thing is you have a strong foundation. Now try and add some real world stuff. Make up stats if you are going to write them on the spot.

Learn examples tho. E.g. China's imposition of tariffs on Australia's wine, barley etc...

All so remember only do it if you know your approximates. E.g. I know the CA is around 18 billion ish rn. So if you were to make up stats don't go beyond the region. Don't say someting like 134.56 billion lol. Another example: unemployment prior to Covid-19 hovers around 5-6% ish.

If your gonna make up stats always add the decimals to show confidence. If you don't know approximates can't go wrong with percentages. E.g. CA rose by 3.45%
