The exam was *exactly* as the summarized exam guidelines said it would be and really not that difficult if you did the assignments/previous exams.

Try for a remark? I don't think the exam was that easy - the lecturer just did her/his job really well in the preparing you for the exam. The content of the course is objective, so if you knew the work you could get a good mark - otherwise you would stuggle to get a high mark. There was no subjective marking like other INF courses where if the knew the work and wrote some stuff down you could easily get a 60%, but struggle to get 90%.

Thanks MotaBoy .. I was definitely thinking that. I just hope that they accept it for a remark because I noticed there's a mark range that one has to be in to qualify for a remark -_-"
I definitely knew my work and completed every question (and I'm sure pretty accurately too) ..so bleak

Just one thing to remember...(it use to be - not sure if it still is so) that if the remark is lower you will get the lower mark.

I think it was one of the exams where you got a hint and , exactly as it was in the exam, a lot of people should have got above 75 if you had read your sfaff very well.
