Questions

Are diagrams compulsory in answers?

Diagrams make economics answers complete and earn marks, so we practise all standard curves.

Is there mathematics in this paper?

Only simple numericals on elasticity, cost and revenue, which are solved step by step in class.

Which syllabus does the course follow?

It follows the UP State Universities NEP 2020 common minimum syllabus for B.Com. Where your own university's syllabus differs, the centre teaches as per your university syllabus and papers.
