Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about economics

In Singapore, many parents invest heavily in tuition for their children, believing it to be crucial for academic success. However, Dr. Anthony Fok views tuition as an additional form of support for a student’s education rather than a mandatory requirement. Tuition aims to address any knowledge gaps that may exist.

Although H1 and H2 students may be in the same class, there is a distinction in the examination format. H1 students are required to respond to two case study questions, while H2 students must answer two case study questions and choose three out of six essay questions. Additionally, H2 students are expected to attend additional classes during specific periods, which are not compulsory for H1 students.

Ten-year-series guides (TYS) are yearly publications that compile past exam questions from the previous ten years. TYS has been utilized in schools for over 40 years due to its ability to reveal patterns in the types of questions asked over time. However, it is important for students not to rely solely on TYS for exam preparation. Dr. Anthony Fok has authored a series of Economics guidebooks that cover evaluation points, diagrams, summary notes, and model essays, providing valuable supplements to TYS.

The GCE ‘A’ level Economics exam places a strong emphasis on higher-order thinking skills, including Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation. Students are tasked with explaining current economic events using relevant economic principles, integrating different topics to construct coherent arguments, and assessing the effectiveness and limitations of economic policies. To excel in Economics, students must stay informed about current events and apply economic concepts in the appropriate context.
