Trade Weighted Index

Seeing as the Trade Weighted Index (TWI) is not specifically referred to in the current study design - does that mean there can be no direct question on TWI in the exam?

I wouldn't be too sure.
My Economics teacher told us that >90% of the questions on the exam are predictable, and that the remaining <10% are there to decide who gets the fifty. The <10% questions are out of the book, and are based off random parts of the textbook that only the most dedicated students have read fully.
His words not mine.

So I would still be wary going into the exam not expecting to see it.

its much more useful to understand the conceptual framework that underlies a term rather than irrelevant facts... knowledge is not being able to recall facts but rather being able to understand how things work... in uni economics/finance/maths you will not be asked to memorise a derivation (or you'll be told which is free marks =) ) but rather how to use models e.g. ad-as... i never did vce economics but i don't believe they will ask you to quote lines from the textbook but as specified.
