- Understand how you are solving the problem: although it may seem difficult, you must understand what you are calculating at each moment, and decide if the results you are obtaining would make sense in a real company.
- Before starting to solve an exercise, write down the data and, if you have time, the formulas you will need to solve it. This way you will have a clearer idea of how to solve it and you won't get lost in the statement if you need to review.
- Manage your time. The PAU Economics exam has more questions than usual, so you should practice before the exam to avoid getting caught out, especially with some of the problems.
- The exercises are always easier than they seem, remember that they are normally solved with a simple addition, subtraction, division or multiplication. They will never ask for many calculations, so read the statement carefully as many times as you need until you reach the answer or procedure.
