I guess you are going a little off-topic.
The marking scheme says this:
Investment is determined by the rate of interest, the cost and efficiency of capital equipment,
changes in consumer demand and expectations. Changes in investment affect the level of
GDP – the multiplier should be used to explain how this happens.

a.png b.png c.png d.png Every year there's labor market question, and this one is one of them..."public sector wage and private sector wage differences"
So this is for 25 marks... can you guys rate what I might get for this?
and btw do tell me, if the question is like "what determines the demand or supply for labor" then what extra should i add or subtract from this?

Bro try to improve your expression and linger on a question till atleast two pages. Moreover, you need to explain each factor in atleast 4-5 lines by quoting examples. here you can also add a factor,,, like the condition or current state of an economy would be extremely crucial in determining level of investment...I mean if the economy is in boom so there will be a inflow of investment and vice versa . Plus add some more diagrams too... like as you said consumer demand determines the level of investment so here if you had drawn a demand and supply diagram depicting a rightward shift in demand thus showing a positive impact on investment would be higly appreciable as it will show your coherent grasp on your facts. Well, i will give no more than 7 marks for this essay, you need to improve it

Sheer lack of economics terms and poor english expression..Economics Essays requires good english expression too(most people will not agree with this but this is what i have seen in most cases)

What topics would you advise that i read for Paper 4 as i dont want to read everything and want to specialise ?
i would prefer that you skip the macro part i.e. national income accounting and all that stuff... except for Standard Of living. its bound to come... the rest is quite simple if you have studied in a levels... market structures, labour market budget line etc they are small topics and can be done easily. best of luck :)

diagrams are the things that matter the most... you have got one advantage though. the examiner doesnt deduct marks if you write any irrelevent points... rather, it tries to search for the key words... if you HAVE mentioned them, it doesnt matter whether the rest is rubbish or not. you will get the benefit :) and btw, u r right.english matters alot. specially when explaining economic terms
