G5er Economics

This course is engineered to transform students into nascent economic thinkers to master the discipline's core analytical framework. The pinnacle of this intellectual training is a rigorous, summative examination designed explicitly to mirror the challenges of a first-year BSc degree in G5 Universities. The exam does not test rote memorisation; instead, it demands the application of models like Supply & Demand to unseen data responses and the evaluation of policy trade-offs in structured essays. This forces students to synthesise micro and macro concepts under time pressure, moving from description to critical analysis. By learning to deconstruct a data set with scepticism, argue from evidence, and justify a position based on marginal incentives rather than ideology, students demonstrate true intellectual maturity. This proven ability to think rigorously and write persuasively under exam conditions is the ultimate validation of their readiness for a top economics programme, showcasing the precise skills sought by competitive universities in both their admissions and their curricula.
