'James got the joint highest score in GCSE Economics in Northern Ireland and feels he is a natural businessman'

:lol: He's educated in economics to GCSE level and he thinks that makes him an economist?

I got an A in GCSE physics, I guess that makes me a physicist.

My French and German A's came with free citizenship.
 
Don't knock it, GCSE Economics gives you a pretty solid foundation in economics, especially if you do that well. Not sure how much use it is in business though.

I did A level, I don't doubt it's usefulness. In terms of practical knowledge it was probably the most useful A level I took, as the others were more 'classic' subjects and so of less day to day use.

But doing well in it doesn't make you an 'economist' by any stretch, so we were just laughing at the description of him as one given the circumstances.

Usually people don't call themselves economists until they have a masters degree, at the very least. Most 'economist' jobs require a PhD.
 
Fair enough, I did it to A Level and loved it too.

I think it's actually very useful and they should implement it into the syllabus for more people, even if it was just as a subsidiary of the maths curriculum.

Learning the basics of inflation, interest rates and other fundamentals of the economy will be very useful to people when they go into work and also in managing their own finances and investments later in life.

I continued it on to University level, along with History, but was always stronger at History than I was at Economics, as I'm not much of a mathematician. I wouldn't describe myself as an Economist still, so it just seemed a bit farcical that a lad with a GCSE in the topic was being described as such, though I'm not sure if it was a self-style title or not.
 
when they were in the boardroom and Mohammed started to get animated I suddenly had an image of 'mini-me' spring to mind together with "its a hard knock life...."
 
I just love how the little fecker said he came up with every idea. Didn't he realise it was being filmed?
 
I want to punch each and every one of them of them in their faces.

This is why I'm a supporter of the school yard bullying programme.
 
Actually a lot of the lads are cnuts

The scouse fella has an annoying scouse accent and won't amount to anything above a bin man

The northern Irish fella thinks he knows everything and is an arrogant shite

The posh lad is incredibly annoying, every time I hear his voice I want to punch someone
 
The girls team are racists, they dont want the black mum and white baby in the same picture, fecking racists
 
I know they are 16 but fecking hell what a shit pitch by both teams, the scouse fella is atrocious, can't even barely read it from the page I'm front of him
 
Black girl does a shit pitch, black girl gets coaxed into letting someone else pitch, new girl does great pitch, black girl congratulates herself for 'letting' other girl do pitch.
 
That fecking Heliconia just looked like a dead...thing. Fair play to the poncey little feck for flogging it for £150.
 
Wow @ the irish lad saying "I'm not very good with numbers", to which Sugar replied "didnt you get joint first in economics?" :lol:
 
Good to see the scouser fired. He just never engaged his brain before he opened his mouth. "Is it good in, like....weather?"

Idiot
