well i'll kick start and say i read it in reading time and wanted to cry, a lot of it came together nicely, but the last two pages with stupid Tasmania Jones did my head in, i'm crossing my fingers the A+ will be lower than last years, but so far most people have said it was easy so i highly doubt it

It was 66 last year. It should drop marginally to maybe 64 or 65 this year

Yeah the whole river desalination was a bit of a mongrel but I found it better than yesterday's tech free for sure

I hate you Tasmania Jones, you can go die in a hole. Was it me or the question where you had to find T really hard?

At least Tasmania Jones could build a desal plant without being held back by protesting villagers...

Is it just me, or do all the girls think that exam 2 was easier than exam 1, and all the guys think the opposite?

It's not, but they're allowed to introduce new material into the question if they explain it in the question.
