[vet-mm] EXAM 2005

[claire]

I agree Greg, I thought it was a vast improvement on last year!
Like you, my kids all stayed for the full time, and I'm told they all 
had their heads down, working the whole way through.
Whilst I haven't analysed all the questions in depth, they seemed 
straight forward and fair. Some of my kids thought it was easy but I 
could see a few  questions that weren't as simple as they thought and 
will sort out the rankings.
The prac questions were interesting, I liked the multimedia circus scenario.
As per the exam advice, there was no prac scripting question (thank 
goodness), but rather short answer and multiple choice questions. One 
asking them to read a script and write some lines to modify it.
I think this was a much more reasonable expectation for kids in an exam 
situation.
Interested to hear what others thought.
Claire :-)
