I have given out too much rep today, but I will rep you later ...

im posting for my boyfriend who is doing this exam at the moment

 

[pc_wizz]

soooo ... ppl havent replyed yet ... hmm ... doesnt that mean something ??

 

[Cactus]

it means

a) they only just got home, or
b) it was a 3 hr exam and everyone wants to not think ever again

lol

a few things;

Did anyone else think that the inclusion of a logic gate question in the multiple choice section was unfair, seeing as logic gates are not mentioned anywhere in the syllabus. I know my class never covered it, and it's not in our textbook..........

The drawing questions were hard, but aside from that I didn't have any troubles.....fingers crossed

 

[inasero]

how did we all go aye?

 

[jason86]

Thought it was good! Finished in just over 2 hours except for the handle drawing, which i forgot to section!!! Otherwise... pretty good, easier than our trial

 

[Cactus]

oh BTW i doubt anyone will be able to post up the whole paper, only multiple choice, because in the engineering exam the question and answer booklet are combined

 

[L45er]

Yeh, and with posting the paper - all you get is the multiple choice questions. Not worth scanning.
The paper was fair, nothing unexpected except the logic gate, which i think i can vaguely remember from prelim Software Design & Development. Other than that it was fairly straight foward.

 

[dannye_36]

Yes i agree, the inclusion of the logic gate question was quite unexpected, and unfair, in my opinion, cause they dont talk about it in the syllabus.

I know my class never covered it, ofcourse, i knew i cause i do SDD, so i had no problems with it, but the rest of my class did.

Well, at least ( for all the people who didnt know it ) it was just a multiple choise question then, rather than a normal one, worth more marks.

lucky i did electronics in yr10 ~ lol i never read the syllabus jus studied everything - waste time

anywayz the test was alot easier compare to past papers

btw: the drawings ~ omg that was confusing - stuffed up the whole lot i bet

reading the sylabus SAVES you time cos it tells you everything you need to know (with the exception of logic gates)

 

[stevenwong86]

Yeah, I thought it was a pretty easy exam as well, not really any surprises.
I didnt do that well though, because I didnt revise a few things properly, like heat treatments and materials testing, so I forgot what they were. As usual, there were a few common sense questions and calculations were pretty easy too, just plugging numbers into formulas.

i never bothered to learn that stuff in class, so i was cramming all last night and this morning up untill 1.30 this arvo lol

i thought that wasn't too abd actually, i expected worse. and the logic gate? i'd never seen it before, but i think i got it anyway, wasn't too hard.

so wot answer u get? "A" - all mine fwends who did electronics with me in yr10 got "A"

 

[stevenwong86]

yeah, I guessed A as well, and my friends who did electronics said it was right, cos the pointed thing in the end means OR.

 

[McLake]

Can you post that question (the logic gate one) please?

 

[ashmeet_14]

My teacher is a hsc marker and he said the answer to the logic gate question is "D"

 

[McLake]

Post it!! I do logic gates at uni ....

 

[ashmeet_14]

sorry i dont have a scanner otherwise i would had posted it for you. sorry mate!!
