I hated multiple choice...liked the essays and the short-answers were pretty good.

Wow... you all found it easy?

Damn, I like economics and I found it to be hard at some parts (maybe cause i dont study enough... meh)

I found multiple choice to be fairly easy. Short answers are a mixed bag, some tough cookies, some easy ones (to me the 5 markers were quite easy)

Question 28 was awesome, hopefully I can do great in that... Wrote 7.5 pages.

Question 26 I left till last, not hard... but I wasn't as confident with that as I was with the Monetary Policy Question.


Overall a decent paper. Was hoping for 80s, though I reckon I'll probably just miss out with high 70s.

<_<

mc were shit with more shit on top. already compared mine and am looking forward to tafe. the rest was ok, bar the questions to do with the case study.

 

[m3d1na]

Same, cept i wrote 9 pages for the monetary policy q, and 8 pages for 26, i did the appreciation q.

Happy overall

Was not expecting a question on another economy in SA but Im pretty sure I bullshitted well enough to get 2/2 and 4/4 or at least 2/2 and 3/4.

Essays were awesome. I did the exact same questions I did in my trial (exchange rates and fiscal) =]

I wrote 17 pages for exchange rates, 20 for fiscal, although my writting gets really big and messy so I fit like 5-6 words per line =]

 

[andrewmurray91]

are you guys serious that stmulus question was a bitch...couldnt talk bout anything going on in the economy now and how the exchange rate is going shit...i just thought it was harder than any past paper i done and the multiple chice were pretty shit too

 

[haiderr]

how can question 1 (MC) be A - low levels of income inequality? coz it asks for charactistic of a DEVELOPING economy. shouldnt it be D - high dependance on agricultural production?

Question 12 (MC): i got D. what did every1 else get?

overall paper was good. except the short answer on globalisation ARRGGGGGHHHHH!

 

[Nasonex]

The paper was easy? GTFO!!

That was a hard test!

 

[Terlob]

Im either way... I found the multiple choice easy but I don't know about the rest

 

[andrewmurray91]

but do all developing economies rely on agriculture?

i sure didnt think so..there were some stupid mc i thought

its a characteristic of LDCs ie. most developing economies rely on agricultural exports
