It allows students to practice their understanding of course content as they learn, with exam-style multiple choice and short answer questions.

The 10th Edition features a new selection of exam-style multiple choice, short answer and extended response questions in each chapter, updated to capture the latest developments in Australia and the global economy, and reflecting the requirements of the New South Wales Year 12 Economics course. The 10th Edition includes THREE practice exam papers, the first focusing on topics 1 and 2, the second on the full syllabus content and the third targeted towards advanced revision of the course.
