Economics (9708) — 2004 Oct-Nov | Cambridge AS & A Level

All 9 Cambridge AS & A Level Economics (9708) papers from the 2004 Oct-Nov session are available on this page. You'll find 4 question papers and 4 mark schemes, along with 1 examiner report. Download any file instantly — these are the same official papers sat by students worldwide in 2004.

The October/November series is primarily taken by students in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. It follows the same syllabus as May/June but is typically offered in fewer subjects and with a smaller candidate pool, especially for O Level. IGCSE Oct/Nov papers follow the same variant numbering system as May/June.

In Cambridge filename conventions, 'qp' denotes a question paper, 'ms' a mark scheme, 'er' an examiner report, and 'gt' grade thresholds. The session code in the filename — 's' for May/June, 'w' for Oct/Nov, 'm' for March — combined with the last two digits of the year, gives you `w04`. So `9708_qp_42_w04` is Paper 4, Variant 2 of this session.

For maximum revision benefit, attempt the question paper under strict exam conditions before opening the mark scheme — allocate the same time per mark as in the real paper, then self-assess. Record every mark lost and categorise each error: was it a knowledge gap, a misread question, or a method error? Targeted review of these categories is far more efficient than re-reading notes. The examiner report for this session is especially valuable — it shows the most common mistakes candidates made and how the chief examiner expected students to structure their answers.
