I've been between 250 and 400 for a while now. I really don't care too much anymore.

obviously luck

although a lot of people didnt put themselves in position to get lucky...e.g., if you did not borrow 50k at the very start of the competition, if you invested in shares with low historic volatility, etc.

clawed my way back to 50, i need a stock to make me some serious cash, 10g's at least. otherwise i cant get into the top 10 :(

surely there is some kind of commendation for the top 50/100 or 20 at least?

maybe they give you there name to the hr department, what dyou reckon?

I've made up a couple hundred places the last few days. I'm now just outside the top 100. I need some massive gains very soon to get up the list.

I finished around 120. I'm pretty happy with that since my economics knowledge is limited to the HSC and a couple first year uni subjects. I basically didn't bother trading after I bought my shares originally either.

I was up to 69 a couple days before the end but the lost plenty in the last couple days.

what's gonna be in it? is it just award presentation or are there gonna be something like career recruitment?
in the emails they always mention about resume, graduate recruitment for participants from outside NSW, etc
