6 tips to fail your economics exam

Updated: Mar 9, 2022

Are you determined to fail your economics exam? Then this is the perfect guide for you. Follow these tips to get the best worst results!



Before the exam


1. Don't give yourself time to study


The economics syllabus is very hefty. Don't give yourself time to study. Start at the last minute. One of the best ways to fail a test is to cram for the test at the last minute. This will help you get unwanted surprises in the exam.


2. Don't organise your study


This will help you to be completely confused about where to start and focus on the least important topics.


3. Avoid diagrams and examples


Adding diagrams and examples may score you too many marks and it creates a risk that you'll pass. So try not to learn them.


On the day of the exam


1. Try not to sleep at all and arrive late for the exam


This will help you to ruin your concentration and score a minimum of marks.


2. Don't read the questions carefully


Before you start answering questions, take a few seconds to not read the directions. Just write everything you know about the topic to get the examiner completely confused about what you are talking about.


3. Don't plan essay answers


Economics essays require you to demonstrate your knowledge. So try not to demonstrate your knowledge. Don't make an outline of the ideas you want to include in your answer. This way you may forget some things as soon as you start writing.


Conclusion


Failing an economics exam is harder than you'd imagine. Follow the above tips to guarantee satisfactory low marks. Of course, if you'd like to pass, do the opposite!
