Did anyone have a question about the Wii in Multimedia? I thought I was doing the cssa but it seems like I didn't.
i did too. i thought it we were doing CSSA too but i noticed it didnt have the CSSA logo on the front cover.

Did anyone else have a question saying define a bit plane and give an example of its use?

becasue no-one from my school answered it and i looked throuhg the syllabus and couldnt find bit plane anywhere.

I didn't have a bit plane question. What the hell is a bit plane? o_o;

Was that an option question?

I found the test quite reasonable. Many of the questions (for me) were the sort that I could easily answer and offer about a dozen examples to elaborate and get my point across.

Hopefully I'll get 80 or higher; I usually get around 85 - 90 in IPT tasks.

I think its the Independent paper which is shitloads harder than CSSA to be honest. Too much reading the paper as long with a long list of bullshit scenario based questions ...Made worst cause i had to do Automated Manufacturing Systems and Multimedia which were bad lolz

was your multimedia for independant a wii question or a google 3D maps question? Becasue we had to do two multimedia questions since we havent copmpletely finished TPS. just wondering where the questions are from :)

As for the paper...there was quite a bit or reading but I didn't find it too bad since I answered all the questions with time to spare. Then again, i could have goten them all completely wrong lol

I found it pretty easy apart from the Wii question where I was pulling shit out of my ass

I didn't do the CSSA trial cause i think our school got the Independent Trial and its prolly tons harder than the CSSA trial in general. I got 69% and ranked 2nd out of 27 :D

A lot of reading...for example i do Automated Manufacturing Systems & Multimedia Systems as option topics. We had the Wii question which was pretty shifty and stuff and the automated manufacturing system section required too much BS reading and a lot of application of IPT knowledge to scenarios. That being said the highest mark was only 2 marks above me of 71 so i'm pretty happy with my mark for this exam.

You'd expect at least a few define this and that questions. That being said i'm not complaining about my mark. LOL is the fact that people who did the test told me that the test was fairly easy and that they did pretty well before the results were known. Pretty stupid how iddiots go to the toilet during the IPT exam when i know they'd prolly get more marks if they had stayed the whole duration of the exam.

Lol I finished with like 30 mins + To go, and the guys who were beating me in rank stayed to the end, and I ended up beating them, IPT is just using your knowledge to assess the situation than GG
