PAPER 8 - SELECTED TOPICS - EASTER TERM
Paper 8 is different from papers 1-7 as it includes a choice of topics.  The Introductory Business Economics paper is compulsory for all students, while the remainder is divided into seven sections corresponding to the other seven activities shown below.  Candidates will be required to answer questions from two sections of these sections, or, in the case of candidates offering a foreign language, one section.  It is possible to attend more than 2 lecture courses if a student wishes to.  With the exception of economics, all these courses run in the Easter term.
