Most of it was actually pretty easy. But question 4... wut? I didn't know where to begin and didn't manage to finish the question :( I guess all the information provided just overwhelmed me. Besides that, it wasn't too bad.

It was easier than I had anticipated. Question 4 took me a while to work out. I changed my answer in the last 2 minutes. My percentage ended up being 36.81%, I think. I know I lost cheap marks on question 5 as well. MC was alright. Overall, a do-able exam.
