[Year 12 IT Apps] Proof reader

[Mark Kelly]

I've come to learn that most students avoid the perils of dumb exam 
questions because they don't read them properly, or they're not skilled 
enough to spot the problem.

e.g. Section A Q9 option D seems GREAT until you think it through... and 
98% of students simply won't.

Ignorance is bliss?
