I didn't think it was too bad
I was sick of the 'collecting/analysing/storing and receiving' questions though

wasn't too bad. did anyone else find collecting/analyzing/processing/storing and receiving questions a bit ambiguous, like you really had to milk ur response with not much information given?

Personally I found it a real dud. All that preparation for communication systems and there were barely any questions.

So easy though. The only question that threw me off was "define a pixel" XD

Same, trolls be everywhere.

General overview of the test:

More logical thinking and subjective shit, too vague imo.

As for the ISA remote information beeping thing. I said it can be used to prevent head on collisions by monitoring speed direction etc etc. And if the warning about head on collision isn't enough to deter the driver, the system will take control of both vehicles and safely stop them.

:hat:

Haha, i said, and i quote:

Straight off the bat, you're gonna have 13 year old kids jumping on swearing their heas off while their parents are absent.

This would cause a bad image for the company etc and so on and forth.

I agree about the organising/processing/analysing crap.. seriously how many questions do they wanna give us to test us on those things? And it was really ambiguous.. I waffled on soo much!

Multiple choice was easy I thought, TPS and multimedia were okay too.

For the alternative use of that GPS thing, I said it could be used to track criminals/people on house arrest lolol.

Can someone also describe the schema that they did for the music website thingy? I wanna know if I did it correctly. As for the data dictionary for that question, I used field type, field size, data type, description and null value. Would that be enough??

OMG those 6 mark collecting storing retrieving and whatever the fuck else destroyed me.
At least by and large the test was pretty fucken easy. It's always been full of ambiguous shit so, nothing new there.
