Re: How Was The Exam 2008!?!?!

2 years worth of bludge was not worth it for the epic fail experienced in that room today

Re: How Was The Exam 2008!?!?!

Such a breeze after business =)
Seriously, got the first bit done in like 45 mins, did the last section (the 2 report-type thingies) for the rest of the time. Finished all up with about 4 minutes to go or so.

The only one that weirded me out a bit was question 14 (OH&S Committee one). Also question 6 was a bit weird (I don't think any of the answers were correct, but picked C)

Re: How Was The Exam 2008!?!?!

Nah question 6 was:
Which of the following uses ONLY verbal communication?
(A) Body language, memo, email
(B) Memo, paging system, team meeting
(C) Team meeting, answering machine, telephone
(D) Body language, telephone, answering machine

I put (A) Faulty sections on the disk for the scandisk one. Though I just had a look at Windows XP, 98se and NT4.0 and none of them have that, bleh.

Re: How Was The Exam 2008!?!?!

Which extended response did you guys pick?

I did 20 and 22. 12 and 8 pages written respectively.

As for multiple choice:

Question 6: verbal communication = (c)
Question 10: cleaning products are flammable so (c)
Question 13: Scandisk utility I put (d) the location of blocks
Question 14: OHS committee I put it as a standard (b)
