Good to know
Things parents ask us first
Marks are won in evaluation, not recall
Most students reach a competent explanation but stall there. The top H2 bands require prioritising arguments, weighing trade-offs and reaching a substantiated judgement. A large share of tuition is rebuilding answers around evaluation rather than adding more content.
H1 and H2 are different commitments
H1 Economics is a single Case Study paper, often a contrasting subject. H2 adds an Essay paper and deeper policy analysis. Confirm which your JC offers and which your intended university course expects before planning tuition intensity.
Start with JC1 fundamentals
The JC2 macroeconomics and policy topics assume a firm JC1 demand-supply and market-failure base. Closing JC1 gaps early prevents compounding confusion when fiscal, monetary and exchange-rate policy are layered on before the prelims.
Compare
H1 vs H2 Economics and IB Economics
Choosing the right scope and tuition intensity

|---|---|---|---|---|
| A-Level H1 Economics | 1 Case Study paper | Core micro and macro, lighter depth | Arts/contrast subject students | |
| A-Level H2 Economics | Case Study + Essay paper | Full micro, macro, policy, evaluation | Economics-intensive university paths | |
| IB Economics (SL/HL) | Papers + 3 IA commentaries | Micro, macro, global; HL quantitative | IB Diploma students |
