Economics exam discussion

[AmericanBeauty]

I feel bad for the people who tried really hard. That exam was so easy. I did zero study for it because I was expecting to fail, and whilst I could still easily fail, that was just incredibly easy if you studied. I got 12/15 for multiple choices which is unheard of, I was expecting like 2/15.

The short answers I felt you could legit bullshit most of the answers. Towards the end of the booklet it got harder which would separate the good/bad students, but I also ran out of time and missed like 10 marks worth of questions.

If I pass, thats a miracle. But that exam was so easy.

I felt it was 'easy' for those who knew the budget because so much of it was derived from the current one?

i made up so much shit about university deregulation and gp co-payment ill probably fail if they weren't applicable. i had no idea what that 'treasurer' thing was, i didn't know if it said it in the case study so i made up some policy that didn't exist.

I would have zero clue, I don't even know if mine is right. Sounds complex though. I'm aiming for a 20 as I did no study so yeah. I reckon I could pull a 30

Does anybody actually have the questions?

NDIS is fine for income distribution

I did the temporary budget repair levy for people earning over $180k plus $7 co-payment are they both legit?

I thought question asked "announced in 14/15" and NDIS was announced in '11? Otherwise, I was going to definitely do it.

I can't remember if it said 14/15 or not, I only skimmed over the paper very quickly. Budget repair levy definitely works, $7 co-payment is a bit iffy - you would have to argue it would have regressive effects and doesn't really help achieve the goal imo.

Strange question, no, it's should matter so long as you didn't write anything particularly obscene. Why? MCs are marked using the separate sheet you filled out.
