That was the hardest out of all the past exams i've done. the question's wern't really DIRECTLY asking you some things, rather VCAA chose simply to hint at what you were supposed to say.

I think the question which took me AGES to respond to was the one about the decathlon....SERIOUSLY...a DECATHLON?

Lucky you.

I made the mistake of making all my questions overly detailed kinda rushed the last question (I did the decathalon or whatever the fuck it said) at the end. Really really hope cut off is low.

Hardest among any PE paper I have ever done. Enough said.

Good thing I used to compete in track and field.. and trained for that event one season.

But VCAA made the exam as if to confuse us with what they want. They were never direct in any of the energy system and fatigue questions.

I was the last to finish in ours. :(

Yeah I think more application was required. I guess it's good in a way, it'll separate those who worked hard and had extensive knowledge of the course from those who didn't.

Either way VCAA is fucked up, seriously needs to get some counselling. I had methods earlier from 11.45 - 2.00 which was RAPE!

EXACTLY. IT WAS A MASSIVE RAPE SESSION FOR METHODS+PE STUDENTS.

They scheduled 2 of the most difficult exams in both respective subject in years, IN ONE DAY!
