the laptop question was ok...... i went better in the algorithm in that than the truck DFD. cause it was like how i did my major work......

nothings changed.........basically my whole test was a Visual Arts exercise as I drew everything from structure diagrams to storyboards and even data dictionaries that you had to explain using diagrams.
I was beginning to think I was doing the wrong test but then I saw it, the kind of question seen only in SDD tests (and IPT)........a nice big juicy 10 mark critically analyse the social and ethical issues....yuck

Social and ethical issues is pretty easy to make up, if you can remember social and ethical issues.

If I'm short of ideas I think 'well, if I worked for Microsoft...' and play it from there

I also did the catholic paper and I thought I did pretty good considering the wide range of things we needed to know.

There were only three of us left in my exam with 45mins to go.
Most of my class thought it was hard. Some even left not long after the first hour.

Overall I was pleased with the test as I thought it was going to be allot harder. I reckon my Year 11 yearly exam was harder then it.

I had some trouble with question 25 though.

 

[AcCeSs-DeNieD]

funny... I found question 25 the easiest of out hte lot in the CSSA papers....
what did you have trouble with?

 

[OniLink]

I need to rephrase that a little. I did have trouble with it but thats only because it was the only section where I was a bit unsure if what I was doing was right.
