Multiple Choice was surprisingly easy. Short answers were difficult and didn't give much choice to write about, studied like hell for Global Economy and Australia's Place but there were two entire questions on Issues- Distribution and Environmental Sustainability and I wasn't prepared for them. My teachers said they STRONGLY believed the case study of globalization on another country would be back this year (after 5 years) in the extended response hence I studied that so was relieved when I saw that question. Spent 1 hour + there and had only 1/2 hour left for monetary policy question and ended up writing a qualitative but rushed answer of only 3 1/2 pages (LITERALLY CRIED!!) so that's going to kill my total mark. Hoping for 19-20 in multiple choice, 32-33 in short answer, 13-14 in stimulus response and 18-19 in extended response.

I think it was banning the product and putting taxes upon it, but i could be wrong.

Well market-based policies are taxes, but not sure about regulations such as how they make particular products.
