I have the attitude, you studied too much of you ace it. Otherwise there is no such thing. Studying things that weren't in the exam doesn't mean you studied too much.. it just means that you covered what you were surposed to do. It's not like you can predict what will be there...much.

I was VERY annoyed that this exam didn't test very much of the technical things in the syllabus. Practically the whole exam was ethic/issues. How can they seperate the higher band answers when anyone could have bs thier way into band6 in that paper, without having any knowledge of the course?

I hate the way the IPT/SDD exams are structured. It just proves the notion that it's a completely inaccurate reflection of student's knowledge of the course. It tests you on maybe 5% of the whole course, because most of it is social/ethical crap that anyone can bullshit about. But you have to study everything because you don't know what will come up in it.

Thank god ipt's over...

Hehe...I only studied in the morning...from 9.30am to about 1.00pm...gave myself roughly an hour for lunch...so I was still cramming a bit then...

I studied specific things in extreme detail, only to find that they weren't even mentioned in the test. On the other hand, I forgot to study SQL statements, and low and behold there was a 3-marker on it.

I was glad I looked at last years exam though, I predicted the real-time processing question because last year's had batch processing.

I wasn't pissed, but I would have liked to have answered a few toughies, to have the discrepancy between Bands 5 and 6, or 4 and 5, for example, as Ribbon has pointed out earlier in this thread.

Not pissed about it, but it's over now
