    Heh,

    Im just wondering did anybody do this subject last year and if you did was the problem ( the one about smoking, pareto efficiency etc.) on the final exam he gave you easy to see coming. Why i ask this is he has constantly highlighted the importance of a problem involving a public good all year so i think this might appear on the test.

    Yea i have last years paper, yea it was on smoking. Looking at the notes on it, it doesnt look to bad, i was just thinking that he may replace this question with one on a public good as that was the question he gave us on the mid-term

    It wasn't a hard exam its just that he is such a **** lecturer that the subject seemed hard.

    Yea it doesnt seem to bad, i hope we get a similiar paper. Its a weird layout, definitions, long mathematically problem and MCQs. Yea i have to agree he does make the subject seem really hard but he tries his best to help you out like he gave us a midterm test that was exactly the same queation as the sample one he gave us.
