CUET UG 2024: Unpacking Economics
As we get ready for CUET at the college level in 2024, one of the interesting parts is the Economics section. Economics is a big topic that connects with our everyday lives in cool ways.
When we check out past papers, the Economics questions don’t seem too hard. If you know your stuff, tackling the questions and getting good marks should be doable.
Looking at the syllabus, Economics at the college level has two main parts: Micro and Macro.
Micro Economics covers:
- A general look at Microeconomics
- How consumers behave and what they demand
On the other side, Macro Economics looks at:
- Introductory Macro Economics – Stuff like National Income & Related Aggregates
- Figuring out Income and Employment
- Money and Banking
- Government Budgets
- Balance of Payments
There’s more to the syllabus when we talk about Indian Economics. It covers:
- How things developed from 1947-90 and what changed after 1991
- What’s going on now in the Indian Economy, like:
- Poverty
- Building human skills
- Making rural areas better
- Getting jobs
- Improving infrastructure
- Making sure economic growth is good for the long run
We also look at how India compares to neighbors like Pakistan and China.
To get ready for the Economics section, try these tips:
- Read through the syllabus carefully, writing down all the topics to avoid confusion later.
- Do a simple analysis of what you’re good at and where you need more help (SWOT analysis).
- Make a list of good books and notes you need. Don’t forget about NCERT books – they’re super important.
- Get help from a teacher if there are areas you find tricky.
- Practice with test papers. The CUET exam might be different from what you’re used to in Class 12, so practicing will help you get used to the style and pace.
These tips come from the Chief Academics Officer at Vidyamandir Classes. They’ve been around the block when it comes to education, so it’s good advice to keep in mind as you get ready for CUET.
