Re: Sections III, IV : Extended Response

I did Q25 (globalisation) and Q28(monetary policy).
14 Pages for Q25
11 Pages for Q28
Wrote around 6-7 words per line.
I could write heaps coz I had 2 hours for essays, zoomed thru the MC and SHort answers.

I really liked the globalisation one. I talked about WTO, IMF in good detail, implemented all the stimulus quotes, and then talked about EU, ASEAN, APEC.. and tied in 2 pages about the global financial crisis. I reckon I did really well in that essay, I ended up tieing in things like moral hazard and intergenerational equity too.

The effectiveness of monetary policy was a good Q too... the economic objectives I talked about in regards to monetary policy were:
-Inflation
-Econ. Growth
-Unemployment
-International Competitiveness
-External Stability
Got lots of recent stats in there etc etc

Im pretty happy overall with the extended responses

Hate to say it but my teacher always said.. If you have three areas of an essay to discuss and you only discuss two, the most that you can hope to get is a 12.

I think I did the same thing by accident. It should be alright after they start reading the question etc., they're good at that kind of thing and it's not like a computer marks it.
I did Question 26 and Question 27. I did 5 pages for Q26 and 7 pages for Q27.

Re: Sections III, IV : Extended Response

Quality over quanitity, comparing how many pages you wrote is just flying your e-peen around unneccesarily.
