15 document(s) - everything available for this course.
Economics Generic Elective at DU is mathematical and diagram-driven. This collection with 15 documents across 1 semester(s) separates Micro, Macro, Statistics and Maths so you revise the quantitative core first.
Exam pattern: 75 marks theory with numericals (40% weight) and theory (60%). Expect one 15-mark derivation (e.g., IS-LM, consumer equilibrium), two 10-mark numericals (elasticity, national income), and shorts on definitions. Without diagrams, scores plateau at 45/75.
Marking: Steps matter — writing the formula, substituting, and final unit (Rs., %). In theory, a labelled diagram (Indifference curves, AD-AS) with a 2-line explanation often gets 8/10 even with brief text.
How to use PYQs: For each unit, solve last 3 years’ numericals first, then theory. You will see 50% repeat — e.g., GDP vs GNP, multiplier, Phillips curve debate. Keep a formula sheet per semester; verified notes here do the same.
All papers here are UGCF/NEP, free to view. Cross-check the official syllabus for exact numerical weightage for your batch.
