Ok thanks guys, I as just interested in knowing if I should do it or not. My teacher is pretty good I reckon. We basically finish all the topics this term and he said we would practice essay writing / short answers for the rest of the year since we're only in year 11 so we don't have the same level of Ability as say a year 12 person.

Sounds like a plan. In that case for tutoring it really depends on how you feel. If you believe you can maximise your marks during term 2/3 then go for it, though if you believe you need to refine you essay writing/exam technique then maybe do the monthly tutoring thing.

I think it is all 4 topics in 2 terms (last term and this term). Which is achievable although there'd be quite a lot of work.

Yeah it was Loads of work but I studied basically 4-5 hours in the holidays, and now we're just going over the stuff we had problems with. And yeah I'll probably go tutoring closer to trials and the HSC exam to brush up and see if I missed anything

If you maintain that, then you'll get a really nice mark. I did 30 mins - 1 hour a day and up to 2 hours a day a week into exam periods.

I'd say yes, because it covers Qantas really elaborately.

Sounds quite decent. The mark distribution shouldn't be too much since you can prepare for the assessment.

What are everybody else's Half Yearly exams like?

Also good luck guys.

Just basically like any trial or hsc paper, 20 multiple choice, a few short answers and 1 multiple choice which will be on finance.

If the questions asks about global financial strategies when expanding overseas do you talk about all financial strategies or just global financial management?

Is Finance any more interesting than Marketing and Operations?
I have done finance and operations and in my opinion finance is significantly better. Its more concept based with the ratios which is good from the regular rote learnt content.
