David, I agree with most of your answers for the MC questions, except no.9 I
think the answer should be 9B as tactical decisions are more short term and
specific.

I'm with Mark on this one. Definitely A.

Validation can ensure that I input a date of birth for example that is
reasonable, say 12/08/1981 but is it accurate, no!

Here are my multiple choice answers.

1 B

2 A

3 D

4 D

5 A

6 A

7 B

8 A

9 A - not so confident on that one

10 A

11 C 

12 C

13 B 

14 B

15 D

16 C

17 B

18 B

19 C

20 C

Validation deals with data entry.

Options B, C and D are all testing to ensure data manipulation is
correct/accurate etc.

Only option A clearly deals with data entry (i.e. the most correct option)

Dear wiser colleagues

Can someone help me with MC question 8?

An effective validation technique is evident when . all answers seem to
support the presence of an effective validation technique.

A - at first glance the answer but is reasonableness the best evidence of
validation?

B- an accurate report suggests accurate input data, doesn't it?

C- least likely but again "reasonably"? What does that mean? If data can be
sorted is it valid?

D -calculated files gives correct answers! Is this evidence of GIGO - not
garbage in, garbage out, but good in, good out?

I'm confused!

I cannot believe that number question. No one would normally type numbers in
as numerals, set the data type to text and then order from A -> Z.

I doubt anyone would get the answer to that unless they have accidentally
done it in the past. 

Because you have entered them as text, the sort will only look at the left
most number to order them (just like with normal ones).

Answer according to Access is B..

Question 5 in the Multiple Choice? What's the consensus on that one?

I don't have the paper in front of me, but after a quick chat to my
students, plain to see that they had differing opinions on the sorting of
numbers as text question in the multiple choice.

I'm not marking this year by the way.

I'm reading the paper now. 

Section A looks pretty free of rabies.

I have put the gun down after reading the normalisation question...  Thank
Dog sanity prevailed on that one!

Damn that ERD question - three marks and they had to draw an entire diagram
from scratch!  Grrr.

The 8 mark question appeared, as we expected.  And it was approachable.

Overall, I think I might give the dog a bone.
