    Advice and tips for prelim and hsc Economics

    Despite what people have said here, i honestly believe that you need to keep up to date with whats happening in the economy - not so much in yr 11, but more in yr 12. It really gives your essay responses an edge, and is a key factor in getting top marks in economics. You don't have to watch...

    I went to MacQuarie info day yesterday...

    whilst the difference in marks between ranks is considered, sometimes the gaps can be squished together/stretched out too. all the depends on the range of marks the school gets.

    Are you truly satisfied?

    I think theres always that feeling of unsatisfaction, knowing that you could've done better (thats how I felt when I first got my results) But then again, it feels pretty good knowing that you haven't reached your potential yet, that there's so much more you can do. So overall, I guess I'm...

    10 or 12 units ???

    I think you'd be better off making this decision a little later when you have a clearer idea of which subjects you're excelling in, in comparision to others. If you're really struggling with the workload, then drop down to 10. However, if you feel that you're coping with the workload fine...

    UAI estimate . . . please =)

    Oh I did take everything with a pinch of salt. I know that some people are actually trying to help, but then there's others that just plug numbers out of thin air. All I'm saying is to be wary of how large the differentials are of these estimates and the real thing. Some people can take em too...

    Take a look at how accurate bos member estimates are.

    This is a message to all you 09ers who are going to either now, or in the near future, post up your marks are hope that bos members will get your UAI right. So I got an estimate done by bos members before the hsc, I was curious to know what people thought/how close they'd actually be to my...

    Why do so many people boast about their UAI?

    wow, alot of strong opinions here i personally think that some people are just genuinely happy and just sharing their good results with friends, no intention whatsoever to boast or anything. i can see how this can be misinterpreted as showing off though, but i guess you've gotta see it from...

    LUNA PARK physics is fun

    our school used to do the same thing, except at wonderland. it was a nice way to slip in an excursion into yr 12. its a shame wonderland closed down before our grade had a chance to go.

    how do u rate comerce @ usyd?

    i kinda liked the old school feeling of it, its got wooden benches and the material on the seats is like a green patterned old style office look. i've heard that the lack of AC is a problem though (according to UOW, lol it was listed as one of the reasons to go to UOW)
