Other then a few incredibly basic calculations ie Unemloyment rate, LFRP, CPI, Growth and the multiplier (which are practically all percentages changes, except the multiplier), what is incredibly mathematical about HSC Economics?

Theres also few demand and supply graphs (linear by the way!). Now Eco is a maths disciple, but not in the HSC. Its remembering cause-effect relationships and random facts mainly.

In Economics, you learn about how the economy works and a bit of politics on the side. It has been quite beneficial insofar as I have learnt a lot and become more objective towards the Government and its related bodies.

Economics is barely mathematical-based in the Preliminary/HSC. The only thing you have to do would be to calculate Total Outlay, MPS/MPC etc and it requires basic multiplication and division.

legal studies is a really interesting course and far easier than economics which is maths based. I guess it also depends on the teacher but our legal lessons are so fun.

Wtf?

best way to sum it all up
Economics- Learn how the world is going Up to date on everything (harder)
Legal- Learn about the law, courts, crime ect... all related to the Legal System (easier)
