PLEASE do not write anything about the exams. You guys know as well as I do that some people haven't done the exam, and putting it up on various sites is very likely to cause trouble, or at least have the trouble to do so. While I know that you are also very eager to talk about how you did in the exam, the questions etc, that also reveals content about the exam that could theoretically offer an advantage to people who are about to do the paper. The "they could just ignore it" excuse doesn't hold up - I think that they would have the stigma of having possibly had access to the paper. Therefore, please refrain from talking about the papers until say 2 weeks have passed. I recall a specific post from one of the forum members asking that nothing about the exam be posted up as well.. so do it for his sake as well as mine. People found talking about the exam contrary to this post.. well, I'll think of ways of dealing with serial offenders. I've moved all the posts to a non-accessible area until I think it's good to move them back again.

oh i thought ALL CSSA exams are to be held at the same time and if anyone hasn't done it cuz they're sick or something, then they will just get an estimate?

wouldn't it be not very good if people are still to do their exams after so many people have done it... i mean even if ppl can't get stuff about the exams here they can easily get it elsewhere since so many ppl have done it lol

hmm... good point. Can someone confirm for me that security period is over? I recall a post in the thread that said they didn't want to see it because they were sick or something...
I'll check again later tonight, if the overwhelming consensus is that it should go back up + no risk, then I'll apologise and put it back on :)
But yeah... usually you know for exams etc it's better to err on the side of caution..

"Question What is the security period for the CSSA exam papers? It does not appear on the web site.

Answer Our published timetable dictates the security period, because it is a condition of sale that exams will be administered in accordance with this timetable."

"Question When can exam papers be returned to students?

Answer Papers can be returned to students, at the discretion of the school, immediately after the completion of the subject exam date specified on the published CSSA timetable."

There we have it. Now, Mr.Moderator, could you be so kind as to return the thread(s) that I started about the 2005 CSSA Trial Paper? Note that I did so about 10 minutes after the expiration of the security date.

I'm dying to know how I went compared to the rest of the state.

Thank you.

Hmmm. I think it would be wise to wait a day or two before the exam is uploaded or linked to, just in case. It can't hurt, can it, Derek?
