  I remember my econs teacher saying about needing to show analysis in essays. Using key phrases will help you and make the reader think that you are analysing.
  
  Some key phrases:
  
  However
  On the other hand
  
  Econs essay is rather similar to GP essay in that u will need to plan what to write. Furthermore, in my opinion, macro econs essay are easier to write because you can bullsh1t more.
  
  A well written econs essay does not only show a grasp of theory, but a strong application of it. This done by using real life concrete examples to support what you are saying. Hence, it is important to have a good knowledge of current economic affairs. UK markers will like to read things about Asia, and not of Europe, when reading your essay. Also, even if you are a little inaccurate about things in Asia, they wouldn't know =D

  one good analysis question is this
  
  Why does US have trade deficit and financial deficit, as well as budget deficit all at the same time?
