Sam, you have my absolute sympathy.  That seriously sucks - I sincerely hope everything turns out ok for you, and if VCAA doesn't accept your letter of intent then they really are moronic.
Did you see me constantly talking to examiners today?

Don't let it get you down - I know it's hard, but if you walked out of that exam thinking (apart from my stupid calculator) I had no regrets, I tried my best with all the questions to the best of my ability, then you should consider the exam a success.

Good luck with the appeal :)
And I agree, the VCAA are heartless bastards!

If VCAA ever reject your appeal, just remember, their headquarters is in Coburg.  ;)

Not suggesting anything, but I thought I would put it on the table.

Oh my God!! I panicked for you!!! =(

I really REALLY hope things go okay for you. That is SO UNFAIR for everything to come down to a faulty calculator.

I hope your appeal goes well! It wasn't your fault!! =(

If all else fails, sue Casio or Ti Instruments or whoever made your calculator for negligence.
