Rofl same, she told us while handing out lollies xD. At the time i was like pfft i won't use this, then i got into the exam and im like omg epic.

By influencing the cost & supply of money you subsequently change the value of the Aus $ leading to a change in the exchange rate. Either way using DMO to dirty the float or changing interest rates with the aim of stopping an exchange rate fall is monetary policy, simple as that.

Monetary policy (as defined in the Leading Edge 2008 book) is: - A macroeconomic policy that aims to influence the cost and supply of money in the economy in order to influence economic outcomes. That's exactly what dirtying the float is, hence you should have included it in your essay.

Bingo. Although the monetary question asked you to talk about all the objectives, you should have focused on inflation/unemployment/growth; as they're the main things affecting the Australian economy atm. Also I mentioned how RBA dirtied the float for the 4th time in 10 years yesterday I think...

I'm expecting mid 80s to low 90s; whatever band that gets me. Mind you our teacher drills us in terms of how he marks, so maybe i'll do better. I average 14 for Multiple Choice which is good :D

Are you guys shitting me? That exam was easy as tits.

Look at it this way- if they ask you what the value is at the end of the entire period- it's future value. If they ask you how much each installment was, it's current value. I think. I usually look at the statistics given and gauge my answer from there.

As if you couldn't incorporate death & mortality into that; I managed to. Social Order was my other main theme; fuck yeah. But bullshit question I agree.

Talk about how they blocked the Triumvirs and their reforms and stuff. Also don't forget that people like Caesar were optimates and populares to, so you can talk about them in your essay.

Ancient is easy as tits. Then again depends on what subjects you do. Rome is awesome fun, and my teacher isn't the best but still it's mainly just reciting facts. Except for personality/period then it involved some critical thinking.

Looks good, especially like the effects part.

above 90 would get you band 6, isn't above 80 band 5? What are your ranks at school for eco? Alot depends on that.

Is that for the blue moon festival or whatever it's called?

Don't use blanket statements, like "completely ineffective"; say something like "generally effective" or "effective in the majority of circumstances" and it's easier to say it's effective then ineffective. Oh and don't follow the syllabus, that's the silly long way to do it. E.g. for family I...
