How did you quit?

 

[Iba Ila]

Whats OMO? oh is it open market operations? i did that too haha

I skipped solow's, could only do part A, went to do money demand. a lot of derivation for this paper.

i did study too. read the textbooks to understand concepts and did past 5 years pyp.
i thought sec A was ok... or so i thought haha

depressed

Tot u said u did consumption? Depressed.

 

[Thatonlinestore]

Tot u said u did consumption? Depressed.

ah i meant open econ, consumption and money supply. hahaha dont know why i typed demand

 

[slashiroth]

all the best to all the uol students for their exams.

 

[noobiee]

[chiwawa23]

All who took POM today? Which qns did u all do??

 

[chiwawa23]

idk how many will agree as well but to me POA paper was quite simple also.. at least for the qn-s i attempted..

i saw consumption i was happy

but when i see ricardian i knew was screwed

Ikr! I actually prepared for the topic but when I read there's government budget constraint and Ricardian, that was it. That's why I did Solow, Open Econ and Money Demand & Supply. And I did badly..haizzz

lol the irony was, i intended to finish reading the 2012 commentaries, the qn was gov lbc too. but i didnt. so.. i only managed to do part a by deriving lol the rest was ........

I did all pyp from 08-13 ZA + ZB. That's 12 papers. Not just memory work mind you

Practicing more is good but it is by no means a guarantee. More importantly is to learn the fundamentals. Everything that Kevin sheedy does, stems from fundamentals. Sadly most people's fundamentals are not strong enough.

Don't get me wrong here and his paper is not easy, and will NEVER be easy- but it is by no means undoable.

Perhaps rote practicing doesn't really work here and we need to rethink how we study.

Actually I'm under Clare kon and I think her fundamentals are even better than Seet (crashed his class hahaha) as she goes through from mathematical derivation to intuition to graphical derivation.

I mean, I didn't expect to do THAT badly. I could apply concepts reasonably well. The problem wasn't in section A. It was in section B, mostly part b and c.

But you are right, I have only myself to blame for studying the majority of tested material. Never expected the style to deviate years away from past papers.

Dr. Seet only like to talk. very egoistical guy.

economic papers like to test your technical ability together with the intuition behind it in order to weed out those who use rote learning.

i did 1,5,6 and 7. POM was so tough! Think i might fail zzz

Me did 6 7 4 1. I think it was quite all right though a bit tough too. Able to write out something.

His notes are darn lousy.

Look at Clare's notes and u guys will tell the difference.

Have to read Dornbursh and the examiner's prelim report

Seet's notes hai si many people.

woah like so many people saying this year's macro was hard...now i'm worried for myself already...but in my opinion the OMO question is quite easy right, those who did that should be able to pass already
