how likely it is to come i think im not too sure i got it from a friend. plus we really don't know but i think it probs would be on economic growth, external stability, inflation or unemployment. I dont think they'd really ask income distribution considering that its a structural issue and hence the govt can mainly tackle it through microeconomic reform, which is long term and we dont really have much data on recent microeconomic policies. Enviro could come up so watch out for that.

They should definitely allow it given you need to remember stats as well! The harder bit is making arguments and supporting it with evidence, but memorisation ends up being one of the primary skills unfortunately.

what are the odds that there's a question/stimulus essay about trump and his impact on Australia or smth

If they sense the stat is fake and check it you'll definitely suffer in marks, so agreed!

Past essay questions rarely focus in on one specific thing like this - there was nothing specific to pandemic that called it out and that was way bigger. So I would say chances are low but you never know. If anything maybe they have it as a stimulus but ask wider about impacts of globalisation on Australia or trends in protectionism and impacts of that.

Yea true, I do definitely remember there was a past hsc (can’t remmeber the year) that went crazy on protectionism through section 1 and 2 so I feel the writers may have inadvertently been seeing trump on the news and the paper ends up sort of relating.
I mean, half the syllabus is recent trends and events and he is definatly one especially for globalisation topic

I am not familiar with the accuracy of any predictions, but generally would say not to trust any haha! A better use of time is spent understanding the types of questions that come up more often, prioritising your study in those areas, and then moving into less common areas and seeing if you would be able to tackle them as well. No one really know so predictions are just luck! I had a go at using machine learning to see if it will work as a fun side task, but I wouldn't trust it - nor for anyone else. I think people have been complaining about another tutors wrong prediction but if you put all your hope in a prediction then its your fault at the end of the day.
