Introduction to Economics for JC, IB, A-levels in Singapore

Economics is the social science that studies the behavior of individuals, groups, and organizations, when they manage or use scarce resources, which have alternative uses, to achieve desired ends. Simply speaking, Economics is the study of how society uses its limited resources.

​

Economics has two main categories: microeconomics and macroeconomics. Microeconomics studies the behaviours of how individuals and companies make decisions to allocate their limited resources and the interactions among these individuals and companies. Macroeconomics emphasizes on national wide phenomena which are explained by indicators such as inflation, CPI (Consumer Price Index), GDP (Gross Domestic Product), Unemployment Rate, Interest Rates, etc. Common Economics topics include market failure, Production Possibility Curve, demand and supply, government subsidy, inflation, exchange rate policy, etc.

Common Struggles of A-Level JC and IB Students in Economics

How familiar are you with the topics we listed above? Do you understand those topics well? Most students cannot understand economic terms such as “market failure” and “opportunity cost” because they can’t relate them to real life important examples. They may also find the contents boring and monotonous at the beginning as the lecture notes are full of definitions. As a result, these students did not understand how to apply the economic definitions they learnt as key phrases to illustrate the questions in the exam.

​

As such, there are two main reasons of why most students cannot learn JC Economics well. Firstly, they cannot understand the relevant economic concepts. Secondly, they don’t know how to write Econs essays to score effectively.

​

Since over 90% of local students in Singapore only begin to learn Economics at Junior Colleage (JC) or IB levels, majority of them are afraid of this subject and think that Economics is a very difficult subject. Though JC Economics and IB Economics are both advanced subjects, you can learn Economics well with proper guidance and hard work.
