Title: HOW DID EVERYBODY GO?!
Post by: weeknd on November 16, 2011, 02:42:08 pm
How did everybody go in the exam?!?

To be honest, it was a lot easier then then the previous ones but I still didn't manage to finish the rendering question >:(, how did everybody go?

rendering question took me at least 30 mins, but made up the time on the third angle. quite happy with how i went, but i screwed up  the Net box on question 2

Yeah, spent way too much time trying to get the right textures on the rendering question..

For the third angle drawing question, how did you show Section B-B on the front view, did you have to indicate the two B's?

i fucked up the section BB thing.. my rendering was pretty ordinary

Yeah, but if you see the examples of high scoring responses on VCAA assessment reports, the renderings look pretty normal aswell.

Oh well, lets just hope for the best. :-\

I spent too long on the rendering at the beginning and had to work frantically through the orthogonal and writing questions. Was the third angle orthogonal symbol supposed to be drawn in the little box down the bottom? I drew my postcard design really hastily, hence the rendering was awful and the design looks incomplete. Scared I will lose several marks for the effectiveness or clarity of the design there which could have been easily got.

Yeah it was way easier than other years...
i wrote B and B at the 2 ends on the orthogonals..

But my rendering on question 2 wasnt so great.. HAHA

aaaaaawwwwwwww yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

yep yep, the front view pretty much had the same line as it did in the isometric, running up and down

good old Bug Zone! January - May 2012 gotta get down there

did everyone look at the orthogonal drawing for the first time and say something along the lines of "good lord have mercy"?

yes it scared the absolute shit out of me, now I realised I missed out the top circle from the side views.. how many marks would they deduct if you missed an aspect of the design but the rest was right?

The cutting line? It was on the isometric, just the vertical B -> B line, you had to include it in the front view....

Yeah, looking at the drawing and seeing all those lines and the sections made me shit my pants, did you really have to write down the two B's for your front view?

Or did you just have to include the cutting line.. I drew my third angle symbol on the top right... I was wondering why there was an empty square on the bottom >:(

Also, what did you guys get for the first question? If I remember I think I got to depict on the lion, to identify on the melbourne zoo logo, to guide on the map and to advertise on the poster.. now that I think about it, is there even a purpose to depict or to identify? Cause the other options they had for the logo and lion didn't make much sense, such as to shade etc.

i'm almost definite that "depict" is right, it does 'identify' the tiger but that doesn't seem to be the purpose of the drawing.
wasn't that empty box fooor the third angle symbol? pretty sure it was
in the exam revision booklet I got, cutting lines needed to have bold arrows and indications of what lines they were... suppose all those tiny things explain why it was a 21 mark question haha ...

Yeah, to depict was for the lion and to identify was for the Melbourne Zoo logo, I HOPE I am right :-\

Hell no, I am pretty sure that it was for the third angle symbol too, I drew mine on the top right of the drawings like the normal way, hopefully will still get some marks for that..
I'm just worried if we had to shade to show that it something was being cutting off.. I also didn't label the two B's on my cutting line NOOOOOOOOO >:(
