ecos is the hardest subject i swear. It has 50x more content than Physics and the concepts are so illogical and impractical.

It may seem illogical and impractical simply because u aren't used to the concepts - once u fully understand everything, u'll begin to think of them as obvious. Economics teaches u to think rationally

ecos' logical... at least the theory... but wen i finally started skimming papers n news start of yr 12... it just contradicted everythin ive learnt... n then ppl started telling me all the thoery is just theory... n wot really matters in the real world is consumer n investor sentiment n confidence...

I always felt that chem was mostly about memorising stuff, rather than actually understanding or knowing it. But then again, once you memorise it, it's there to use.

Eco on the other hand is more about understanding. You learn the concept & have to explain it so that it fits the question, rather than just giving the same answer.
