Common mistakes

The misconceptions stored on this entity, with the correction to give.

  • Students treat macroeconomics as a rule to memorise rather than a relationship to understand.

  • Learners apply the correct method to macroeconomics but ignore the context or units.

    Correction: Require an answer sentence with units on every applied question.
