ib-risk-taker Posted May 11, 2019 Report Share Posted May 11, 2019 My teacher says I need to include a specific piece of economic theory in the question. Problem is, my essay focusses on several aspects of economic theory. My essay is structured basically as: 1. Allocative efficiency 2. Productive efficiency 3. Labour market 4. Effect on taxicab drivers 5. Indirect tax implemented by the government There's no way I can synthesise all of those things into one aspect of economic theory, because... it's lots of aspects of economic theory? Is that OK?

Sandwich Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 I can't really help as I don't know enough about Economics but if I were you I'd google 50 Excellent Extended Essays and try to find some examples of high scoring Economics EEs. They should give you a feel for the kind of things which have scored highly in the past and whether they dealt with a single aspect or multiple aspects. Then I'd be tempted to model the depth of your essay on one of those high scoring essays from the past. I did that with my Philosophy EE to get an idea of how I should treat my topic, and it worked a treat. I wouldn't have written it in the closely argumentative way I did without those past EEs for inspiration. Edit: A quick google I found http://concordianlibrary.weebly.com/uploads/2/3/3/1/23317138/1_econ_jagelka_essay.pdf for instance There is a series of old EEs called '50 Excellent Extended Essays' floating around out there. I assume they all scored either perfect or very high scores. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
