I highly recommend this subject as a unit for economics. Weekly lecture were very content heavy- 80-100 slides a week, however, what was on the slides was basically the extent of the knowledge required for exams and assignment to get a pass/credit (readings important if you want to get a higher grade which is achievable). If you are good at memorising this subject is great for you, a lot of content and dates to memorise for exams but again, thats the extent of it. The course I found was straight-forward, fairly easy, interesting and enjoyable!

The lecture content was beyond interesting! The lectures are substantial in size (80-100 slides per lecture) but are covered well. The assessments were very fair (even easy). However I didn't find Mathew Smith to be the best lecturer. Readings are essential to score high marks. Highly recommend against neglecting them.

Purely theory course, but interesting. There is a lot of content but as long as you keep up it is fine. Matt isn't exactly a generous marker which makes it hard to score well in the mid-sem and assignment.
