I have been doing some practice exam 2's and it seems to me that Itute exams are harder than the VCAA ones. The multiple choice take me a lot longer and the wording can be bad throughout the Itute exams  :tickedoff:. I also noticed that with VCAA exams, you can normally start a question fail the first bit, but still do the rest of it. Itute seem to make exams so that if you fail the first part, you cannot do the other parts  :(. Has anyone else noticed this as well? I am just interested because I am doing significantly worse at Itute exams than VCAA ones.

I don't know anything specifically irrelevent because it's a waste of time doing itute exams.
Basically they'll make questions that are ridiculously hard with a chance of like 0.000001% of something similar coming up on the actual exam. They'll also "require" a lot of knowledge about different theories, formulas that are not within the course, so you won't be able to do some of them.

Yeah don't do itute (I mean you can, it's just a waste of study time...). Some of their exams are ridiculous. Many of their questions need some sort of manpulation before you can get it in a usable form and I don't think VCAA would do something like that (I hope not!!).
