Economics made easy here

[rvvoraa]

Well, first let me introduce myself. I am Rushabh Vora from Mumbai. I am in Tybcom this year and will appear for exam in 2007.
I have found that averagely every student say that Economics is tough & lengthy. Well i must say that its wrong, Nothing is tough unless u make it. This problem is faced by almost all students.
The reason is simple, we lack planning. Most of the people dont know how to prepare for the exam. Some thinks that its theory so we will do this in last month but they are wrong, they should start studying from start.
Well i will help you to do the planning.
I have found many people run around professors for important questions at last moment and waste their time of studying. And suppose if they get question, tell me what will they prepare at last moment.
Tell me what if i give you questions which will come in the exam of 2007. The questions will be sure shot. Only 29 questions you have to perpare for the year. Ya just 29 questions and i bet u you will be in postion to attempt all 100 marks paper without option. I guess 29 questions are not too much for the whole year for a subject. So tell me sounds interesting??
Well we will plan for the next year exam in steps.
1) Firstly we will understand Pattern Paper of the Economics
2) Than we will see the subject involved in Modules.
3) Than i will give you question bank.
4) After questions answers will come from my part (when new data will be available).
5) Than we will get into discussion & look more good answers to it ( as i am not teacher my answers would not be perfect)
If moderaters dont have any problem i can also give you my contact information ofcourse in private so we can discuss more effectively.

These words of yours are quiet inspiring. But-
Do you think that the person who is checking the paper (I don't know the term given to that person) will like it if someone writes answers form the same module.
Besides what if the trick of writing the answers form the same module doesnt work (i.e. what if any one answering doesn't understand the question, or can't recall the answer etc.) ""we should have a plan "B" ready"". Hope you will look on to my questions.

[rautsaurab]

I have got an idea What if we start a new thread for each subject with the help of the seniors we can discuss for account, mpp, export, etc. We should ask anything related to the subjects to our college professors discuss them on the site and look for making the notes better and better.

Saurabh,

These words of yours are quiet inspiring. But-

i have considered ur questions. And i have all answers for ur questions. So let me start it. Person checking the papers (moderator) like it or dont like it have to check the paper, its his job & he get paid for it. I am not saying that you have to do a particular set of module. You can do any four module out of this but it should be compulsorily two from section 1 & two from section 2. It means you can choose 1 & 2 or 1 & 3 or 1 & 4 or 2 & 3 or 2 & 4 or 3 & 4 or any other combination and it goes same for section II. Right now I have posted only Section I. Section II is to come (i.e. module V - VIII), i will post this by next week. For last, first do this i also have a plan for recalling & understanding the questions what asked.
And i am going to start threads for other subjects as well. So dont worry. Let me first finish with this thread of Economics.
Regards
Rushabh Vora
