ECON1110: Macroeconomics I (1 Viewer)

[SoCal]

Does anyone do this subject? If you do and have done the exam, did you have enough time to finish? Not one person in my class finished! It really annoys me because the test was quite easy and when I flicked through the remaining questions, they were all answerable!

You are always pressed for time with economics in-class tests.

Economics is shit. I absolutly hate it, cant understand anything lol

I am the opposite, I quite like Economics actually. I find Microeconomics pretty easy, but Macroeconomics is a little harder.

Well, I had my Microeconomics exam today and I found it really easy. I finished the exam comfortably and had enough time to go though the exam again.

economics is a bitch, all those curves and graphs really shit me

Having done Economics in year 11 and 12 also helps, because the course is quite similar (especially in Macroeconomics).

yeah i guess it would. I get the theory but i cant apply it to the graphs-stuff like Marginal revenue and shit like that

Actually, when I think about it, it is mainly the Macroeconomics course that has similarities between it and HSC Economics. The Microeconomics course I am doing at the moment is quite different to HSC Economics, especially the graphs.

Hey how did everyone go in the test?

 

[SoCal]

Well I did surprisingly well, considering I didn't finish Macroeconomics and made stupid mistakes in both exams:

Microeconomics: 89/100
Macroeconomics: 86.5/100

Who is up to date with Macroeconomics? I swear I can't keep up with the pace of the reading they expect! I am four chapters behind and we have an exam next week!

ive never finished with less than 15mins to go, and i know plenty of people in the same position.
if you waste time ie dont get to the point of the short answer questions quickly then youre quite likely to be short on time
