Dear all
I second all that Chris says regarding the IB and although I come from
an A Level background and taught the Edexcel syllabus in the UK, I am a
complete convert.
With regard to Economics, in the five years I have taught it, I have
found it to have much more application to the real world, more student
friendly and include very close to the same depth as A Level. I have
had students not get a 7 (top grade) in the past who would have achieved
an A grade at A level.
