Micro is about the allocation of resources and pricing of goods and services within an economy (supply and demand). It tends to look at individual companies as examples and problems based on resources and pricing within those companies (effects of competitors, taxes etc..). Macro looks to the economy as a whole and focuses on things such as GNP/GDP and how things such as unemployment, inflation, consumer behaviour, price trends impact on it. It looks at the net exports/imports side of the economy also. All you need to know is that macro is better and much easier. lol

I studied them separately then one year later they decided to merge them together but too many people failed it so they separated them. There was a bit of a difference between them, although the weighting of the assignments and exam were the same for the two subjects.

Should be great fun! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Its still under contract so the results can't be released but I will say this; the VN did a lot better than the VL.

Idk man, lol... Exams started on the 25th of Oct and I've already had three and my final exam is on the 11th; so I kind of have a mini break now and will study for the last exam next week. Good luck with your exams. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Anyone else around here just get results? Mine came out earlier this week and I did really well, it seems the harder my subjects get, the better I do! lol. A belated congratulations Salim, 1.5yrs left for me now which will take me to a grand total of 6.5 years there! Fml, haha.

Congratulations dude! I'm completing my Masters (dual - coursework) atm and people keep pressing the idea of a PhD, unfortunately just the thought of writing a thesis scares me so I don't think I'll be doing that anytime soon. haha. What PhD are you undertaking?

Aerospace Engineering, but since I received a government scholarship I can study whatever I want. I am focusing on Formula One aerodynamics from a research perspective.
