they had SD card as a method of portable storage

Damn was that the answer? That was one of the only MC that I struggled with, was thinking that the card wasn't safe enough for long term storage so I picked Magnetic tape...

I said there was something fishy going on at VCAA with this exam.

[mrme360]

Mark kelly just posted the multiple choice answers

I got 17/20 :-(

[MJRomeo81]

I agree with all of MK's answers.

Interesting, this exam looks easier than the one I did in 2012.

[NathanGauci]

I got 17 as well, I'm really disappointed at the ones i got wrong because 2 are from not reading the questions properly...

But its over now so I have to focus on other exams

Hey

Yeah, looks like the SD was the answer I thought the exact same thing but looked at magnetic tape and realised its not too portable haha I got 19/20, kind of happy with it, not happy because I got one of the four efficiency/effectiveness questions wrong -.-

All the best though! Cheers

I think I did pretty well on the exam. 18/20 for MC. One silly mistake was the sorting question with the "B" names. But for the calculated field of the StaffDiscount (20) I used prior FileMaker knowledge and came with the answer D.

You might get that one correct if Mark Kelly gets his way

EDIT: Looks like some of the short answer are up now as well.

EDIT 2: More answers posted now

I put my multiple choice answers down incorrectly. I misread what I wrote on the exam.

My answers were:

ADDCCBAADABDDDBCCCBA

So I got 17/20

However he has said that he is disputing some of the questions. Which I agree with everything that was written.

I still think there is something fishy.

It might be one of those questions where there is an error (due to laziness of those who we checking the exams before it was released) and either answers receives 1 mark. That's what I think it might result in.

Don't worry about it, I only got a 37 (non-scaled) and didn't put any effort at all.
As long as you have the will and motivation to do better next year, you will do fine.
There's nothing to lose if you do a 6th subject (i'm serious), it only adds onto your atar.
One thing I really didn't do this year was take notes and revise constantly, this is something I will do a lot next year.
Always look to improve yourself, this is only one subject and you have more chance to do better next year because you can learn from your mistakes.
