    Longest time spent travelling to and from uni

    15 min car ride to station and then depending on how (not "if") shitty cityrail is, the trip takes from 35 mins -60 mins. After that, a 1o minute walk to uni from Redfern station.

    what is the 'crowding in' effect?

    do u mean the crowding out effect? :P Basically, governments borrow money (by issuing bonds) to fund additional spending. The problem occurs when government debt 'crowds out' private companies and individuals from the lending market. Increased government borrowing tends to increase...

    Memorising Essays...???

    for modern hist: you can basically write approx 5 general essays before the HSC that will cover the entire syllabus. these are usually a mix of past HSC q's and trial q's. Of course, the q's wont be the same but there are only so many ways they can twist the content

    Trade and Financial Flows

    from memory, they will generally ask q's concerning the direction, trend and composition of trade and financial flows. the textbook summarises it quite well. self explanatory?

Basic algebra (equation of a line, make y the subject, find the gradient, solving basic equations, simultaneous...

    Your opinion on degree to transfer to

    if you truly dont mind a whole arts degree then i think you shoudl go for it. the comm pre reqs are not too bad. Econ 1001 and 1002 are straightforward. Obviously, you are already wading though ECMT. Acct 1a and 1b is probably boring but even im not so adverse to the subject anymore, the more...

    Are you happy with what you are currently studying (at USyd)?

    I would usually say Im fairly happy with my course but lately, i've been thinking its not really for me.
