Haven't started yet :S (for anything really, not just ECOP)CurlyRuby said:
ECOP should be pretty easy really though, already know a fair bit about Neoclassical and Keynesian, just got to learn Marxist and Institutional stuff

Finished with marxism, keynes, neoclassical, classical but not yet instit.
I feel confident though, my understanding is quite broad. The essay question will most likely have a 'compare' question. So im okay.

By the way, has everyone found the past papers for ECOP on the library website? Helpful plus.

He said it in either a Keynesian lecture or an institutional one.. forgotten already. It was bloody hilarious though, especially coming from a christian school, where you rarely hear teachers say anything worse than "damn".
Ive quickly learnt that lecturers are nothing like school teachers (which is a great thing
)

but im going to get like a distinction in chemistry which i have clashing with it, because i find it so much easier to study; i just have masses of chemistry now in my brain.
and little to no political economy.

Looking over past exams, and it doesnt seem to be that bad. Im hoping though they wont throw any curve balls. The essay will have the potential to screw me over though...
So for those taking ecop next semester, what unit are you taking? 1002 (econ and policy) or 1003 (int econ and finance)? Im going with 1003, seems more exciting.

mmm I'm doing 1002 as well....
Is it just me, or do the short answers from the last 5 years seem virtually the same??
How long would he expect those responses to be, he must want some fairly concise, dense responses to answer them to a high standard, as there is a fairly severe time constraint
Thoughts?

The exam wasn't too bad tbh
Wrote a few good respones for the short answer questions, and my essay was ok, albeit a bit short.
I did the Marxist/Keynesian recession question
How'd everyone else find it?

my section b was really a series of unrelated paragraphs rather than a proper essay. waaaay rushed.
apart from that the exam was okay.
does anyone know whether you HAVE to do 1002 to complete a major, or can you do 1003 instead? 1003 seems more interesting.

Section A was fine, as easy as I thought it was going to be, all my marks should be coming from there.
Section B was alright I guess, I was just a bit rushed at the end, spent too much time on Section A (do you find that you spend more time on things that are easier?)
What questions did everyone do? I did 1,3,4,5,7

That was a great exam.
The only things I bothered studying were in there.
I did q1, 2, 3, 4 and 7.

I can't remember what numbers they were, but did the questions on division of labour, externatilities, perfect competition and the keynesian multiplier
did the essay question on marxist/keynesian economics and recessions
