As per thread - I haven't gone through entire course of course, but so far:

Enjoyed - Microreform/Protection/Eco Growth

Hated - Global Economy with all the reasons for differences, organisations and trading blocs

What about everyone else?

Yeah from what I've heard that's the case for most, but I haven't gone through it.

But out of curiosity, why?

Also what parts did you most like?

I really enjoyed studying the economy other than Australia - we did Poland and that was probably my favourite part of the course and my strongest area. There wasnt really anything I didnt like to be honest.

The global economy was pretty bad except for protection, china case study probably the worst... Haven't done microeconomic policies yet but it looks pretty bad.

Enjoyed - BOP (I actually found it kind of interesting haha) all of topic 1 (except international organisations was a bit dry), economic issues (especially growth), haven't covered macro yet (in class but not mentally haha) but it sound good
Disliked - exchange rates (just slightly - like some of the questions don't come directly from the syllabus I've found), labour markets and micro

Enjoyed: exchange rates (relatively straightforward) and the balance of payments (although somewhat difficult to grasp)
Disliked: labour market policy - relatively dry content

enjoy every topic as they all can be applied to the real world in one way or another
but..... the BoP topic.... is really a pain in the ass
other than that everything else make sense :)
