What are the Parts of the Economics Exam? (1 Viewer)

[AKONS]

G'day guys

I just had a question about what exactly the HSC economics exam is like.

What are the individual sections and how are they different from other sections of the economics exam?

Thanks in advance!

Hey Akons,
So as far as I remember, there are 3 main sections.
Section 1: Multiple Choice Questions(Q1-20)
Section 2: Short Answer Questions(Generally Q21-25)
Section 3: Essays(Q26-29)
There are always 4 essay questions for which you must pick 2.
I.e. There will 26,27 and you will have to pick one essay to write(26 and 27 are generally the stimulus questions)
There will also be questions 28 and 29 where you will have to pick one essay to write about
If I'm not clear enough, look at the 2020 HSC Paper released by NESA and it should be pretty clear.

Thank you so much for your response Zacharia Villegas!
The 2 essays you mentioned that are needed to be completed, is there any difference between them?
