    Few days till exam, how should people be preparing?

    The early 90's- I've already done most of the recent ones and the 90's are harder than the 00's imo

    Yeah that's what I was like. There's no way in hell B6 cut-off is like 93 or whatever lol. It wasn't even that easy. And yeah- it will be marked hard I think- I doubt a lot of these guys with their five page essays will get near full marks. Will be interesting to see marks actually. And that...

    Elitist Selective school mentality makes me rage!

    Why are you so pissed about it (srs)? I don't agree with what they're saying either but if you don't like it, just ignore them.

    Sections III, IV - Extended Response

    For CAD, these were the points I hit- I used examples from the dot com bubble, first resources boom, GFC, mining boom, and Euro debt crisis throughout BOGS- global growth -> exports, commodity prices, our exchange rate, our domestic growth -> imports Net primary income -> Global interest rates...

    Section I - Multiple Choice

    Q18 is defs $2. They show you the vertical distance between the two on the graph -> its just not that clear at the equilibrium point -> look a bit left of that

    General Thoughts: Economics

    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

    General Thoughts: English Advanced Paper 2

    Fuark nice- congrats :) And they scale each question so it doesn't really matter for prescribes or not You don't lose X marks per se. It depends on what you had up to it, how you ended it etc. You will get docked something though but it won't be that big.

    How many pages did you write for each section?

    6,6,6 pretty much lol. And page comparisons aren't very useful- I know people that write 3 words per line and some that write over 10.

    Other text types

    Hey guys, Lets say we get asked to write in another text form (speech etc.)- obviously you write in a form suitable to that. How then do you convey your analysis? You'd hardly stand in front of an audience and reference recurring motifs etc. Thanks :)

    Abbreviation Question Help Please?

    You can but tbh I'd be careful- it can interrupt the flow of your argument if you have a few abbreviations going on at a time and the marker needs to stop and think what you are referring to

    Introductions

    There's no set limit- don't waffle and answer the question and you'll be fine. Generally around 3/4 of a page is a good length but it all depends on the question and your response to it etc.
