Title: Unit 4 Outcome 1
Post by: jsimmo on August 08, 2008, 05:50:23 pm
I'm assuming most people would have already started this SAC..

So, how are you all going? At first I found it to be really difficult because of the lack of direction and instructions that I was given.. however, now I seem to be doing really well..

Also, what is your SAC on?? Mine is about a secondary college who is finding it difficult to record and calculate school fees.

Ours is due this Monday. It's on "Web Works", a web design and software company. Not too difficult, although a bit draining because I have a Software Development outcome at the same time which is just as much (if not more) work as the Apps outcome.

lol, yeah the teachers love to use the stock VITTA outcomes.

Our teacher actually gave us an extra week, we'll probably get our results either at the end of next week or the following Monday. This outcome felt a bit rushed but bleh doesn't matter now :P We've just started revising and working on practice exams.

Nope - he's going to make us do it during one period some time soon (it's a test). He's putting a big emphasis on revising now.

i dont really get this whole ranked in the class thing, but i guess im would be first anyway :P

Our last sac is going to be a test on security or somthin like that- cant wait.


Although what has been running through my head is studying for the exam, like there doesnt seem to be that much to study that isnt already common sense. Anyone have any practsie exams other then the VCAA or know where i can get some? ... becasue not that many companys write exams for IT.

Yeah, same with me. Our teachers started putting up exams on the network and I think thats pretty much all we're going to be doing next term.
