Foreword
●
As aspiring economics and business students, you may have the following questions:
-What are the main types of economics and business competitions for high school students?
-What are the benefits to participate in economics and business competitions?
-How to choose which competitions to join in?
-How to prepare and succeed in these competitions?
BPC, one of the largest student-led business organizers, invites senior students who have won awards in several economics and business competitions to answer all these questions on August 25th. You will also have the chance to get to know them in person. This sharing session is rich in content and I believe it will inspire you.

The Dropout
You may have heard of the book "Bad Blood" before, and this is the TV series adapted from the same true story of Elizabeth Holmes. She was the founder of Theranos, one of the largest business frauds lately. Holmes' company claimed to have the technology to do blood testing with only one drop of blood, but ... (I'll leave the rest for you to find out)
Dirty Money
More stories about frauds and crimes here! (I really love exploring the dark side of business (゚o゚;;). Dirty Money is a documentary series about how individuals, companies, banks, and even government get "dirty money" through tricks and lies that may make you really surprised and angry, as many of the frauds are not brought to justice.

Recommendations
低风险创业
I really recommend the book called “低风险创业” if you want to gain more knowledge about entrepreneur and business. It was a book that I read in the 11th Business Practice Competition. This book is very beginner friendly, and you can learn a lot about entrepreneurship. It is really useful for both learning business and preparing competition.
03
Simon
self-introduction
A1 student in SCIE, ready to apply for economics in the future. Simon has participated in IEO and Wharton Competition. Being enthusiastic, Simon is very willing to share his experiences and tips to help those who wish to take Wharton Competition in the future.
Recommendations
Principles of Microeconomics
Mankiw's Principles of Microeconomics is for basic understanding of the economic system.
Investment 10th Edition
Investments is a book for learning the models and investment strategies more in depth.
04
Shelly
self-introduction
Hello everyone! I’m Shelly from A1. My interest of economics initiated from G2, and I explored the subject — macroeconomics, in particular, through extensive reading and family discussions. I had won multiple awards from competitions, but these are insignificant compared to my passion in economics — the subject in which I consider to be counter-intuitive, complex, and sometimes heavily misunderstood. I love to hear different opinions, so feel free to text me anytime and communicate with me!
Recommendations
The Big Short
My recommended film is The Big Short. It offers insight into financial markets and explains the jargons very well.
Macroeconomics
The Undercover Economist

Competition Introduction

1.International Economics Olympics Competition
Similar to NEC, another popular competition, IEOC examines both theoretical knowledge and business skills, hence both economic and business criterias are tested. Presentation skills, research skills, and critical thinking are also key parts of IEOC. In short, IEOC examines a wide range of skills other beyond economics.

The Wharton Global High School Investment Competition is a free, online investment simulation for high school students (9th to 12th grade) and teachers.
