Economics Tripos Prelims - 1976
Ostensibly a Micro year, but also the most heterodox. We did Marx, Welfare, Distribution etc - here’s the Lecture List before the exam papers. NB. Joan Robinson, Nuti & King

As I recall the main textbook was Baumol’s “Economic Theory & Operations Analysis”, other reading was Dobb on Theories of Value, Marx, Pasinetti, Tony Atkinson of course.
Paper 1 - Economic Principles
Paper 2 - Economic Principles

In the end still not a lot of Micro!
Paper 3 - Comparative Economic Development
Paper 4 was Sociology and 6 was Maths, I don’t have those as they were optional with paper 3 - so here is the final compulsory
Paper 5 - Economic & Social Statistics another 4hr epic.
Oops 1976 to 77 so exam was in 1977
