It's one of those nationwide competitions, 40 multi-choice questions, conducted by one of those Sydney Universities I think...

The Economics one was WAY harder than the BusMan one.
Some of the stuff isn't related to the VCE course though, its more general business knowledge.

The questions were general business knowledge. Nothing specific.
What does ASX stand for? etc.
