it's out of 30 for all students. you start with 10 pts, get one pt for each correct answer, zero pts for a blank answer and -1/4 pts for incorrect answer. usually yr 12 high d cutoff is around 42-43. dunno bout yr 11 high d cutoff probably around low 30's.

lol, how much that someone from my school tops both the competitions?

I dunno if we're in the business studies one, we ARE in the economics one.

I'll be sitting it tommorow, period 2.

:D
ahah, without wings, i wanted to compete with you, but ah well. I s'pose your school thought that the fairer sex didn't stand a chance against the might of sbhs.
^_^
*makes no mention of sghs*

guh, alright then, someone from my school or the neighbouring school.
:-\

and George, you are one cheap guy.
I woulda done the same though.

Study for eco comp? pfft;)
Yeah, I knew Wealth of Nations.

The Harry Potter question is crap, it's not clear if the movie is a substitute or a complement. I just assumed it would be complementary.

Q2 was quite bad as well, the 'Supply curves are derived from':
a) Demand curves (this is what I put, demand curves for factors determining supply of final)
b) production possibility curves (can make an argument for this too)
c) Phillip's curves
d) income elasticity curves

Other than that it was pretty easy.
