So, how was it guys? Can I get a confession?

I think it was OK. The serializer stuff for the class in the UML diagram had me stumped a little bit.
I was able to answer everything else. So Im hoping I made it through.

The paper was very L-O-N-G, and more complicated than past papers, except for Q5.

For "the serializer stuff" you just had to include accessor functions for each of the class data members, or alternatively a toString() function.

@bigron11- I agree, the paper was a bit too long though I think most questions were fair. Unfortunately I could not answer all the questions because of time.
I think for the past 3 or 4 exams, they are just changing how they ask a question. Before they would just pick a question as is from the previous papers.

Yes, none of the questions by themselves were particularly difficult, although generally a bit more complicated than in the past.

There just wasn't enough time to answer them all properly - too much to write.

The only one I remember is Q2, which is 29 marks.

Thanks @Bigron11, anyone who remembers mark allocation for the other questions, I'm trying to gauge how I did?

@sly_fox, might not be 100% correct but i think it was something like:
QN 1: 12
QN 2: 29
QN 3: 13
QN 4: 11
QN 5: 10
