Now that the AS Economics exams

resitting Unit 3, the exam will be on the 4th of June (2 weeks away)
and for all A2 Economics students, Unit 4 will be on the 11th of

you have an exam in the afternoon, you are exempted from classes in the morning
of the exam and the afternoon of the exam or if you have an exam in the
morning, you are exempted from classes in the morning of the exam).
In addition, I also have the
