Students are assessed through Paper 1 (extended response), Paper 2 (data response), and HL Paper 3 (policy paper), plus a Portfolio of three commentaries worth 20%. The course rewards diagram precision, real-world application of theory, and structured evaluation.

    How is it taught?
    Live 1-to-1 online classes with a verified Economics mentor. Your first session is a free trial that maps your level, then classes follow a personal plan. From $15/hour.
