I am Tom, a Cambridge-educated economist turned economics tutor and educator.

Now, I would like to help as many students as possible with their economics.
I do this by providing online resources, like the practice papers above.

Disclaimer: I have no affiliation with any exam board. The questions in these practice papers will be different from those in the actual exam. These papers may be similar to AQA papers, for example in terms of structure of questions, yet are not identical.
I recommend doing wider practice too, for example using the AQA Economics past papers. A link to the AQA Economics official page is here.
