    They give lots of time for this exam because you the drawing component, so normally you will have heaps of time at the end, stay even if you finish early all the way to the end and just keep adding more to the longer response questions, repeated things you have said worded differently, my teacher was the overall senior marker for the exam for the last 15 years and said that is a really good way to leach marks out, they really just want to see you have had a good go at the question and thought about it.

    Best of luck in your engineering exam and all your other exams, and best of wishes in all other future endeavours. Again sorry about the lateness!
    I know this is a late reply, but the best advice I can give is to really know types of material processing and forming, such as forging, extrusion etc... and also the properties that accompany them. You should find the ones you need to know in the syllabus. Clearly drawing and truss analysis will be be there. They will most likely give you a truss that has angles and joints either angled or vertical. A lot of the content you really can figure out through general knowledge and common sense, and you can normally work out the multiple choices that way. If you do chemistry then the corrosion questions will be much easier for you, but if you don't then you can still get them pretty easily too. Just making summaries for the syllabus is really good because many questions will be straight syllabus points almost. Also don't underestimate mechanical advantage questions because they can end up being quite tricky.
