Dear C2 H2 Economics students, Attached is the P-cube revision lecture schedule and questions. P-cube revisions are to help prepare you for your upcoming Block Test 2 which comprises 2 compulsory case studies. Answers will be uploaded on Moodle for those who are unable to attend the sessions. The sessions will be recorded too. Remember, the aim of P-cube is not to teach content so do revise the topics and complete the questions before attending the sessions. On behalf of the Economics Unit
