Hi all. Maybe I've misread the VITTA webpage's description of its Unit 1 &
2 exams<http://www.vitta.org.au/resourceshop/id/116/cid/1/parent/0//t/resourceshop/title/2011+VCE+Software+Development+Exams+Pack>
...

If so, I would be glad to be disabused of a distinct and worrying oddity.

"The 2011* VCE IT units 1 & 2 Exam Pack* contains two *combined Units
1 & 2*exams and includes.
*A Unit 1 only exam will be available in July 2011*."

Does this mean there is no separate exam for unit 2 alone?
If not, does VITTA not remember that (unlike units 3+4), Units 1+2 are
*not*sequential?  I thought VITTA might have realised this after
(finally)
producing the separate unit 1 exam.

Since I have students who have joined my class this semester for unit 2, a
combined unit 1+2 exam would be unfair.
I can't insist on assessing them on unit 1 knowledge or skills if they have
not done it!
