Explain your answer."</p> <p>I'm so terrible on this section and if it ain't in my notes, I'm lost when it comes to these supposed "common knowledge" aspects of economics.</p> <p>At a guess, I'd say that GNP would be less than GDP because GNP in only taking into account what Irish owned factors of production are producing and the income generated by them only whereas GDP is taking into account the value of output in the economy regardless of whether it is Irish owned or foreign.</p> <p>Am I somewhere on the right track? Any help would be much appreciated!

And by the way, business is most certainly not easy, and you can't really bullshit if you're expecting a high grade, there is definitions to be learned and specific ways of answering questions, it is definitly my hardest subject - and I do higher level maths and chemistry. Anyway, I was going to use my sister as an example, she did economics for three years and was reallly good at it, knew her stuff perfectly, then did the leaving cert, got a B3, was kinda disappointed as she thought she'd pulled off at least an A2, maybe even an A1 because the exam had gone well. Then after viewing her script in August, she saw that she <u><strong>had</strong></u> gotten an A1, but that it had been marked by the supervising examiner and the chief examiner, and she'd been brought down at 3 or 4 stages, at what must've been a change in marking scheme. Anyway, my point being, there must be a certain percentage of A's and a certain percentage of fails in any given subject, if you don't know your stuff, you'll only make it easy for them. I'm not saying don't do<br /> it, do it if you like, I wouldn't recommend it, but I think at this stage, having nit done it for the lenght of time that everyone else has, you're putting yourself at a huge disadvantage </p> http://www.allhonours.ie/answers/topic/13861#post-72214 Fri, 21 May 2010 23:26:35 +0000 Rebel Girl 72214@http://www.allhonours.ie/answers/ <p>I actually looked at the paper, and in the short questions business related pieces came up - but the long qusetions, you would not have a chance with, there is a small overlap between the subjects but not a huge overlap, not enough to allow you to do what you want to do and pass </p>
