Every other year I get $50.00, I'm making money out of the competition, plus it's mentally stimulating, plus it gets me out of school.

There, you can't beat it.

wasnt it 30/40 bucks in like yr 7 and 8?

No idea, I only remember the most recent 2 prizes, but I did get a "Prize certificate" in year 7.

the business one was so stupid. i circled things at random mostly and got a distinction. economics one is hard though, u actually have to know your stuff for eco

really? so general knowledge and logic won't get you through it?
what do you mean by 'stuff'?

 

[Sarah168]

hmm..this was like 10 months ago so im really going by my[terrible] memory here

lets see...financial market type of q's, investment determination, inflation, ...lots of hsc stuff...and i had only done like 4 months of prelims eco when i sat for the comp!

oh and general knowledge WILL not get u through unless ur a real brainiac and ur general knowledge is THAT extensive!!!
