Economics HSC Exam Predictions/Thoughts (1 Viewer)

yeah thats basically it. the g20 is literally the most useless economic forum/organisation out there and that's including the OECD so it says something and it was only 2 marks.

yeah that's what i thought ... there isn't much news bout g20 either... for the first short answer i messed it up a lil bit as i said trading blocs have the same trade barriers to non-members which is extra and wrong lol

I feel like the shorties were mostly ok, I was thrown off a bit by the G20 but the rest were pretty good if not a bit boring. I mean I sudied the entire year just for the exam to have environment, exchange rates, a little bit of inflation and micro and literally the entire of Topic 1 in the HSC. And fiscal

i think for the externality one, since land value is an externality (impact third party) its not that. its saying which of these wont happen, and its increased traffic because a bypass that can go past 24 traffic lights will reduce traaffic will it not

is it an externality associated with the booth though?

 

[Hiheyhello]

what did everyone write about g20's impact ? I honestly dont know and wrote that it facilitates economic cooperation of member economics and thus promoting interdepence and globalisation ... don't know if its ok...

uhhhh i said it aims to coordinate fiscal policy among member nations

was a bit worried for the case study question, cuz i wrote about Open Door Policy and Targeted Poverty Alleviation in China, but the question asked for economic development though...i did tie back the policies to ED (the government has more revenue to spend on education etc.), but still wondering if it is a better idea to write about policies specifically linked with healthcare etc...

Yea I guess you could do that but, I reckon they were looking for more specific policies e.g. education, health and environment etc..

those extended responses were good but now I think I have fractured my fingers as I cannot pick up a pen anymore

yea honestly the lines they gave very so little. After asking for two extra booklets i just decided to write beneath the lines lol

@jimmysmith560 wise words for my last exam tomorrow?

Oh, is this a non-maths student? Okay, have a good long holiday tomorrow. You deserve it after a stressful year of lockdowns.

that's great, congratz! What did you choose for the externality mc? Too many cars in local street or an increase in value of nearby land?

After history is the horrid Maths

As someone who thrived on Maths (pretty much depended on it to get my overall grades up) throughout 6 years at high school, I do take some offence to that. But jokes though, I guess it's what your preference is at the end of the day; some people will be maths and science oriented, other people will be english/humanities oriented, etc
