So, how was it?

Multiple choice was ftw
Short questions I'm sure I conjured up some marks - think some of the MCQ's gave some of the short questions "half answers" away.

MTQ was ok, Questions - well - I am sure I guessed a couple of marks here. Overall the exam wasn't bad - Lots of work for very little questions. But I am pretty sure I'll pass this one though.

I think I managed to answer all of the MCQ's correctly.
With the longer questions, did a bit of guess work here and there,
should be able to squeeze out some marks.
Last 2 questions came from assignment 2, happy about that.

I'm sure I have passed.

Ai ai ai. I didnt prepare well enough. I know I got at least 42 marks from MPC, the others im not sure.

As for the written section, lots of guesswork. Hopefully enough for 8 marks...Should be though.

Last exam, time for a beer smileys with beer

@Scag: ... I didn't prepare well enough either because of the volume of work.
MCQ were good.... but the written section, I was only able to confidently answer the first question...

Well, well ... last exam- now the long wait ... tick tock

official release date for exams results is 21 December but they will release results as the become available
MCQ's were ok, most came out of the assignments and the questions on the textbook website, the long questions out of Assignment 2 was a bummer I read throught the answers but didnt think they would ask it
Wrote a lot of stuff there and hopefully I will get some marks for it
the 8 marks for the design models was a bonus

@cjames: which pages are design models given in the textbook? I want to check it, because I guessed the answer to this question.
