    Hey- is there any specific link to when tutorials are allocated (that I've never known about), or will they be listed under http://web.timetable.auth.usyd.edu.au/index.jsp like last semester as they become available?

    B Economic & Social Sciences, B International Studies moving Faculties

    That's stupid- what if you're doing an economics major and industrial relations and human resource management as part of B.Economic and Social Sciences ? Your degree is arts even though everything you're studying is from E+B ? http://www.econ.usyd.edu.au/course/FH025

    Semester 2 Chatter Thread (2007)

    Re: Semester II Chatter Thread! Yeah, officially from next year both government and international relations, and political economy are part of the arts faculty. Which means who knows what for units like government, business and society (compulsory for b.commerce) and other economics- focused...

    Unit of Study Outline Exchange

    Yeah, international organisations has a lecturer that speaks very fast (with an accent that i find difficult.. and i normally don't find accents difficult), and the content seems quite loaded with concepts and definitions that need memorising for the exam. There's only a text and no course...

    Re: Subject Reviews - UPDATED WITH .PDF on first post ECOS2903- Mathematical Economics A Ease: 6/10 The content is easy once you get it but the mid- sem exam was very difficult and completely abstract. No calculators were allowed because questions were completely numberless. Most people...

    How to study for ECOP1001 Exam?

    Yeah I was on maybe 60 average before the exam, and somehow I did well enough in the final exam to manage a final mark of 68. But I hated political economy and wish I'd never wasted my time on it. Just learn everything that you can from the readings and it should go well, there's no real room in...

    How to study for ECOP1001 Exam?

    All I remember studying for the ecop1001 exam last year was just differences in thought, and the exam went ok. Maybe some basic arguments for each, probably in comparison to neoclassicism? The questions (which you would have already seen for yourself from previous years) are very clear and just...

    Bludegy GOVT subs (2nd/3rd year)

    I just finished govt2991 (Govt Hons 2, Political Analysis) and i found it easy compared to my other subjects. If you get at least 70 average in first year govt units you'll be able to do it, even if you don't intend to continue into further hons units, and it still contributes to your govt...

    Economics at Uni...

    I'm majoring in economics and econometrics (probably) at sydney university. I don't think it's very similar to hsc economics. Introductory microeconomics in first year is very simple- but it's more theory and graphs than what I did in school (mainly preliminary y11 economics course)...

    Timetable Question

    Yeah it's not for certain yet. I wouldn't call it draft, but you can't be sure until you get your official timetable. This way you have a close idea though. Like for me absolutely no classes are timetabled for friday.
