Why did you leave after 2 hours?
I thought it was a ridiculously easy exam. I had around 15 minutes to go, wrote 22 full pages overall (used 8 booklets). I kinda wish it was harder, cause now its going to scale down. The third last question in developers view of hardware option was actually fun :rofl:

That was a brilliant Exam.

Yeh, it was easistly one of the more simpler exams that I've seen. And your right Mumma, it'll scale down a bit I think.... The entire Software Developer's View of Hardware question was fun :D I was worried that the actual coding was going to be hard, but like... whoa.... easy shit :p

I'm happy with it :)

It was even easier than last year's (if such a thing is possible). They must be trying to attract students to software or something by making it easy

Wrote about 20 pages as well I think

The multiple choice was very straight forward and they only made us do a linear search (no sorting...yay!!)

made a pleasant change from extension 2 maths yesterday

I used 8 booklets, one of them however contained only this:

Question 3 Book 2 said:
END WHILE
END IF
END subprogram
Which I found rather amusing yet wasteful.

A bit annoyed really, I should have done some study for it now that I realise how dam easy it all was. Was expecting it not to count for me.

Yeah I left about an hour, should be 100%.

(seriously, never leave exams early if you want a good mark).

It was so easy it screwed me up. I laughed at it in reading time like "This will be a breeze."

Then I was just sort of cruising through it, next thing I knew I had half an hour left and still hadn't done the option or a few 5 mark Qs I left out. Lucky the option was easy, so I could go back and finish the first 5 mark algorithm. But yeah, I should have worked faster or something and not spent so much time staring into space.
