It's not as impressive as it seems, the first test was just the easy theory parts and our major project was split into 2 assessments (not sure if that's common/standard?)hang on - you're averaging close to 100% ???thats damn insane
what option topic do you have? we are doing programming paradigms
we had our project proposal (94%), test (89%), project (95% but I'm hoping to get it bumped up a few marks bc I lost four marks for one single GUI flaw) and then our trial --and I'm coming borderline first - I'd say its pretty impressive
jeez aint no way I'm doing all that by thursday
imperative (+ OOP which is just a superset) and declarative (logic). They used to do functional as well as logic as part of declarative but i think that was removed from the syllabus. It's not too bad, imma be honest the boolean algebra and register diagram qs just look confusing to me
tysm!
it's 140 pages wtf
That stuff is pretty much just memories each one and use the question/scenario given to choose the best one and just justify. If you choose a decent one for the given question/scenario and justify it correctly then it shouldn't be that hard
its all the specific copyright licenses and the piracy examples -- are you saying I only need to know a few well??
I mean the licenses aren't that hard as there aren't that many and the more standard ones are quite straight forward and tbh I never learnt piracy examples but I probably just memorised them or smth like that. But it's best to learn as many as possible preferably all as a just in case.
Been some time since I last did it but I would say practice and write down stuff if needed. Like iirc it was quite confusing at first but the more you do it and understand it, it tends to get easier but it is quite easy to make mistakes if rushed as it can be quite the pain in the ass under pressure
I don't think there's an exact ATAR requirement and because IDeA was brand new when I did it, not that many people applied so it was kinda easier to get in but I would say look at the BIT co-op ATAR requirements as it's somewhat similar in terms of selecting students for the course.
Oh I didn't realise - so IDeA is just like an accelerated (ish) course with more opportunities vs Co-op being an actual scholarship??
also to mention, i'm worried about all the cpu stuff. All i can really remember is the names of the processes for the fetch-execute cycle and the names/functions of the cpu parts we learnt in year 11 lmao. i keep forgetting program counter and idek remember the names for the rest, something to do with buses
People in IDeA get actual placements in a company during uni and it's not accelerated unlike the Co-ops (at UTS at least) which are accelerated , scholarship courses but only offer a few 6 month placements with a sponsoring company during the course duration. So IDeA is one company for a few years during uni while co-ops are a few month placements at a few companies that sponsor the course.
OH SHIT I FORGOT ABOUT THAT YEAHHHH DAMNNN
