Title: Exam discussion
Post by: k-dog on November 13, 2013, 09:30:21 pm
How was it? I honestly don't know what to think.

Spoiler
I finished it, but I'm pretty sure most of my short answers were rubbish. And I had no idea how to do that question with the X and figure ground.
I just did

                  x     
           xX  x                     Inb4 2/6
                 x

For the last question did anyone else get the idea to have a light being shone on a lighthouse in reverse to normal? Pretty proud of myself for thinking that up haha.

Yeah I feel uneasy about it! I think my drawing components were perfect but my written responses were crap! I wish we got the sample exam.

Yeah same here. Although I'm not sure if the third angle symbol was required for the orthogonal? (I did it anyway)

I got my mathomat taken off me lol   :-[ but I'm lucky my teacher lent me something to rule with in the end..
There was no multiples choice  ??? , instead draw the lines
But yeah for the "X" question i pretty much did the same as you LOL
Also the orthogonal took a bit to get my head around but I think I did it righto... fingers crossed (I also added the orthognal symbol)
The short answer for me.... oh lordy

Yeah those short answers... There were so many of them too.
What did you guys do for the design area and specific designer?

I did industrial design then wrote about a product designer who could design art deco cat toys to promote the festival. I honestly have no idea why I did that..

lol, I was actually thinking of doing that too, but the only word I could think of was "sign maker"  ::)

It would be cool to know if this exam was actually harder than previous years or if it just felt like it. I  wonder where the A+ cut off will be.

Yeah! I hope it's considered more difficult! It was quite lengthy too, many of my peers weren't able to finish it in time   :-\
oh well time will tell I guess >.<

For the specialist roles I did Environmental - an industrial designer to decorate and set up the interior of the theatre for the festival. :|
 I feel like that is so wrong hahaha!
I struggled to finish it was so long!
