How to use these papers
Work every released free-response question with a pencil and draw the graph before writing anything. The rubric awards the diagram separately from the explanation, and a verbal answer that describes the same shift earns less than a drawn one.
Mark yourself on labelling rather than on shape. Both axes named, curves identified, the shift arrowed, the new equilibrium marked, and shaded areas where surplus or deadweight loss is asked for — each is its own point.
Build one comparison table across the four market structures and use the released questions to test it. Most prompts turn on how one structure differs from another, so the table is the thing worth being able to reproduce under time.
