What the college says

You would be well-suited to studying Economics at A level if you: - have an interest in how resources are managed - people, money and commodities - are inspired to learn about politics and businesses - are willing to take on board new ideas and ways of thinking - want to develop the way you form arguments and take a critical stance on important real-world issues - want to find out why decisions are made that influence the distribution of wealth around the world - enjoy testing models and theories using simulations and role play. Economics complements a number of other subjects, but particularly Geography, Maths, History, Psychology and Politics.

What you need to get on

Grade 6 or above in GCSE Mathematics and English. It is NOT a requirement to have studied Economics at KS4. Human Geography provides a good training for the macroeconomics modules, but is not essential.

How you are assessed

Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.

Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?

Approved for 16 to 18 study on the government's Section 96 list.
