I thought it was quite time consuming. I finished just in time. What did everyone write about the microwave question?

I wrote that it had a large range and it was less expensive compared to a satellite. Not too sure how accurate my responses are, surprising questions considering I have never seen the word microwave written on any of the practice exams or past exams (even multiple choice).

Yeah same, I was pretty surprised when I saw it, I wrote about it's ability to penetrate and the distance. Didn't really know for sure though.

For the Pseudo code in section C, did we all recognise the error being the IF statements not being ELSE IF?

specifically, it was in the last IF statement, but all of them bar the first needed to be changed for it to work correctly

I just removed the else and made a completely new if statement. Same concept I guess

Programming is my strongest area - I can confirm that replacing the last if/else, specifically the else but, with if (age > 24) would make it work properly

I did the exact same!
