Yep, there was so much shit to talk about it wasnt funny. Not necessaruly easy but plentiful if you had looked at all the right things from before. Global influences regarding trade and financial flows, expand, expand, expand, expand...

I think your being a bit pessimistic, integrating the stimulus 3 times was plenty because of its nature and fair enough you didnt use quotes, but still mate i think if you were that happy it would be over 15/20

Yes i did.
Essay 25 i done this.

Talk about changing industry production.
- Moving away from manufacturing
- Moving away from Agg.
- due to the GLOBALISATION PROCESs
- removal of import tarrifs
- introduction of FTAs, SEATO
- Importance of WTO in promoting trade
- Talk about how that effects COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE & OPPORTUNITY COST

Then refer to china Growing population and how they are sourcing us for education (for our eduction)
Education industry grow

More efficient Mining industry

and less based instudies under threat due Asian countries becoming more specialised and our appreciated exchange rate

It wasn't THAT easy?
the policy question in the essay was so so broad. there was just soooo much to talk about. i wrote 12 pages.
I also think there was too much focus on certain topics. Wayyy too many unemployment questions...
I just studied soo much for so many topics, and they weren't examined at all.

yes I agree. I found it difficult to construct a coherent response, particularly by applying economic activity and specific influences on BOP.

Was quite decent I thought. Though pretty pissed because I misread the question on the increase in school leavers age and just talked about LFPR and not unemployment. Ah well- its done now. Essays were pretty broad -> I did balance of payments and case study. Should be 20 in MC
