Anyone else complete multiple choice and short answer in less than an hour and as a result have much more than the 35 minutes they recommend for essays?
Always. That 35 minutes is a fat lie. I would argue that you need 45 minutes per essay to really clarify your thoughts achievable through mcq and short answer time leftover.

the only thing in eco is you literally can't waffle, like if you don't know the theory and have no more stats you can't get your way through it like english or any other subject sadly :(

But that's why the extra time helps. When u are under timed pressure, u of course will fumble. So any extra time u can allocate will ease the pressure and give u time to draw lovely graphs and do plans ;)

Fully completed the Australia in the Global Economy workbook and did a few papers from top schools, hopefully I'm fine.

That is what a lot of people do, including myself. Allocate 1 hour for MCQ and SA and then an hour for each essay (roughly), this is much more optimal than the recommended times.

Do you think they'll ask a question on hyperopia/myopia, loss of kidney function, or sensorineural/conductive hearing loss question this year for the technologies and disorders part?

How harsh are HSC economics markers?
It mostly depends on how the average of how everyone performs for that question. for example, if there was a 5 marker and only 5% of students got 5/5, they will usally mark or 'judge' it easier and be more lenient. it always depends but if it turns out to be a really harsh paper the marking is usually alot easier so dont worry to much. but they do always have to follow the marking criteria.
