    University fee deregulation

    How exactly are they increasing funding? Aren't they cutting funding, thus allowing uni's to regulate fees to make up for lost income? Or are you getting this straight from the mouth of the Liberal government.... The uni's we have seem to be doing fine already with their international...

    Subject Selections - Legal Studies or PDHPE or Economics

    Speaking from current experience Legal is gr9. Economics is gr9. That being said the degree of difficulty is a bit higher for economics. I find both subjects great in their own rights and I honestly could not tell you which one is better. If nobody has ever received a band 6 for economics in...

    University fee deregulation

    Is anyone one on BoS actually in favour of the proposed deregulations to fees and increase in HECS interest rate? If so, why? From where I see it, it will honestly do way more harm than good to Australia for the future, but the future of Australia really does not seem to be the priority for...

    Subjects Selections >.< Economics?

    I do all 3. Business studies is piss easy but content heavy so you have to systematically know your stuff for each topic (which isn't really hard). Legal is gr8, HSC course > year 11 course. Economics is on par with Legal for greatness, however it has a higher degree of difficulty for the...

    Pros + Cons of memorising essays

    Yeah defiantly, study is a very subjective thing. In the end of the day you have to do what's best for you. Doing generic essays which cover all possible points would be a great way of ensuring you know your stuff, obviously you need to get these marked by your teacher to make sure you're doing...

    Pros + Cons of memorising essays

    Pros: You've done some practice. Cons: Probably won't be the question, waste of time - which could be used more productively on doing practice essays to learn how to apply yourself to more questions. I also think memorising essays would leave yourself with a too narrow margin for what the...

    Crushing on a Year 12 girl.

    Stop being a pussy and just ask her for it. Most girls love a bit of confidence.

    How to answer these?

    Shouldn't be spending any longer than 13-15mins on part A from what I've been told and 25-30mins on part B. Our teachers have been getting us used to the structure of this response for awhile. Perhaps also submitting some practice to your teacher / asking for tips on how to approach this as...

    Job prospects: B Media (communication and journalism)?

    Hey everyone. Just wondering if anyone could shed some light on the prospects of getting a job in journalism with that degree or something similar. Also, if anyone is taking the course right now, how it is?

    Should Hockey terminate his plans for a GP Co payment?

    Definitely. While they're at it they should probably put an adequate tax on the mining companies and what not that will generate far greater tax revenue than slogging the citizens for more. Doubt that will ever happen though.

    Is HSC Economics worth doing in Year 12?

    It's pretty nice, it does get dull in some parts. However it's generally really interesting. If you have an interest, stick with it. Don't drop a subject just for the sake of it. Also, I would say it's easier to do well in modern, but it really depends, economic script writing I dare say is more...

    Determining which stage of the business life cycle?

    I would say maturity - " He finds that he needs to spend little on marketing because his business has a good profile in the local community".

    How do you write an economics long response?

    1 - Answering the question. 2 - Report format keeps things easy for the marker to find. (e.g. subheadings for points discussed). 3 - Referring to key words in the question and keep coming back to them, keep information related. 4 - Use diagrams to explain points (when applicable) - this is a...
