Important Message
I have put some suggestive solutions or at least some hints for the past exam papers starting from year 2004. In so doing, I emphasize T 1, T 2 and T 3 of 2010, T 1 and T 2 year 2009, S1 and S2 of year 2008, S1 and S2 of year 2007, S1 and S2 of year 2006 — these past exam papers are more relevant to our current courses as we have used the same textbook, course outline and study guide. Please ignore the multiplier questions as those questions are not relevant for our final exam. I also encourage my students to go through all those elive sessions (recorded by myself). These elive sessions will refresh your memory as well as help you to understand the critical concepts in Economics. Please note that there is no harm of trying to attempt the past exam papers as much as you can – as there is wise saying that “practice makes one perfect”. However, beyond the year 2006 one might find those past exam questions are hard to answer or follow , which is not surprising as we have used different textbooks and course outline and even in some years— the exam format is bit different. Therefore, attempting such questions you might end up with a problem which is summarized by another wise saying 1
i.e. “ The philosophers kick up the dusts and then complain that they cannot see”. So be rational and make your decision wisely in this regard. Finally, I hope my effort will not go in vain and I wish you all the best. cheers Dr. Nabin
