What do you think?

Personally -

Think the mark count is a little low - it should be round the 120-130 mark.

Also, too much weighting on MCQ's. Unless they make the short answer difficult - in which case you can separate the men from the boys, with the MCQs being primarily to allow ppl to show they know the basics.

Yeah, that'd be all you think about :P

But it's just a figure of speech.
