Economics lectures, useful? (2 Viewers)

[xdesires]

I was wondering whether anyone has been to an Academic Attainment 'HSC Economics Lecture' at Sydney Uni before (feat. Ross Gittens)? If so, did you think it was worth the money? ($56/ per day - 2 days in total)

Also, is there anyone planning to go?

All these pamplets are going around about these type of lectures and I have no idea how useful they are. :/ Year 12 = budget disaster.

Thanks in advance~

rossy gittins and two losers does a lecture at penrith and its like $10, because if they charged any more then nobody would turn up.

lectures are only good for the current data they give you if you're like me and you can't be bothered to look up stats yourself

Gittins is crap I heard (from my teacher). He's a bad speaker, but good writer apparently.
