Regarding the question that was repeated ( :( )

We've decided to scrap both questions and give everybody a mark for it (basically, those two questions wont count)

What was the business name? Could you remind me? :)

The questions are set around February/March so it's almost impossible for 1st years to get involved in question setting. But Minai and myself both set some questions (no one else who did question setting comes to BOS to my knowledge).

As far as the repeated question goes: everyone will be assumed to have answered correctly, whether you answer a, b, c, d, nothing or multiple answers.

Why? It was still a legitimate question and you either knew it or you didnt. A bit unfair for those who did, I reckon. As long as the double wasn't a breach of the criteria for "askeable" questions.

I remember it now. It was based on my name (my surname is Shakibaei), but not written by me. The people on the question setting committee throw in the names of other people doing question setting, so most of the names you see in the competitions belong to people doing question setting.

well........that's probably typical, since they're the #1 selective school (no offence intended to all james ruse students on this forum)

btw.................when do we usually get our certificates???? :confused:

Anyone get their results back?

I got a High Distinction .. 97.8 percentile with a mark of 35 I think?
Another guy at my school got a HD with 99 percentile and i'm pretty sure his mark was 36.
