By my teacher:


 * (about showing a "sequence of error correction")
 * "Just make an error and then take a printscreen of it"
 * (about being presented a coursework)
 * "Where's your cover page?" (yes, that's right folks: we need to have a cover page. It isn't in the mark scheme. *sigh*)

From exam papers:


 * 1) A customer of a company wishes to connect to the Internet. Which one of the following is not required to access the Internet?
 * 2) Internet service provider
 * 3) Sound card
 * 4) Web browser
 * 5) Modem
 * 6) * Think carefully about number 3.
 * 7) In a data entry form, an example of a sensible and economical coding for a field asking if a person's age is over 21 would be:
 * 8) true false
 * 9) yes no
 * 10) Y N
 * 11) over under
 * 12) * I chose 4, thinking of making things clear to the user, and considering that I didn't know how the question was phrased. The correct answer is 3, because it takes up less space ("economical") on the computer. Apparently the exam board have never heard of ENUM-style fields.
