    General Thoughts: Economics

    To get 17+/20 you need to use terminology. Stats are important as well but terminology is what seperates band 5 kids from 6

    General Thoughts: Economics

    12/20 max lol? I don't know if your teacher marks hsc but thats not a max 12/20 response. You'd get 10 if you sort of but not really answer the question and didnt write much. You answered the question and did the most important part i think (carbon tax). Maximum maybe of 16 since 17+ is the band...

    General Thoughts: Economics

    Ik you asked him but Ill just summarise what I think, you'd put carbon tax, market failure, solar panel rebates, subsidies on producers that use renewable resources, could maybe mention something global such as kyoto protocol since aus is involved, some people in my cohort also mentioned how...

    General Thoughts: Economics

    I'd say to get a mark of 16 should write at least 3 pages. 5 decent pages answering the question is more than enough for a potential band 6 response. The people that do 8-10 pages either have big writing or write useless crap to "show off" their knowledge. My teacher said every paragraph should...

    That's extremely surprising. My teacher specifically said to never do the case study because it is extremely hard to get above a 16. Out of all the kids in my cohort doing eco, no one picked the case study. Everyone did enviro+inflation/inequality

    Not really many graphs you could draw anyway... But 5-6 pages is good. You can get a 20/20 with 4 pages of normal writing. Thats a fact. I don't see why you can get a 18 or so

    I did that. 95/100 people did the enviro essay and I think the inflation/inequality is maybe a 50/50 tbh

    General Thoughts: Economics

    I didn't think it was too hard I thought it was in the syllabus to learn them. Just to clarify, export incentives are pretty much incentives given to exporters in order to make them increase supply and local content rules refer to producers having to use a certain amount of local produce to...

    In case anyone was wondering one of the guys who did the test asked his teachers for all the answers and these are the correct ones, its in the other thread but might as well put it if anyone wants to know 1: A 2: B 3: D 4: B 5: C 6: C 7: B 8: C 9: D 10: A 11: D 12: B 13: D 14: A 15: A 16: C 17...

    General Thoughts: Economics
