, Which version of visual basic do you use? The AQA spec says Vb6 or vb.net but afaik Vb 2010 is just a newer version of Vb.net which is a newer version of Vb.6.

edit: When I had my interview 2 years ago I was applying for bio,chem,math and psycho (applied for medicine as well). Essentialy people get asked different things. Some teachers bring up a current affair in your subject and ask you to comment on it, or solve a question, but something you wouldnt have neccessarily done at GCSE. Dont give up with they give you a hard question, they dont care if you get it right. My tips are just relax, be yourself because most of the interviewers will be very friendly and students too.
Oh and some people did come in suits back then, but it was a minority. Dress casual smart.Last edited by Polioz; 18-03-2012 at 19:49. -

Re: Woodhouse College Q&A ThreadHi ,Everyone
I am current AS student at Woodhouse , studying , Maths, Physics, Chemistry and English Literature. I would say Woodhouse is a really good college -that is if you want to achieve well , the support is there for you and you can ask for help at any time. Just like any place it depends on the person ! But , I would defiantly recommend it and if you have any questions I will do my best to answer them
Just remember start working consistently from the beginning it will pay off !!

Hi, we're using VB.NET in general as we were all taught it at Woodhouse, but there are other options on the spec: C# and Pascal.
In the second year I'm pretty sure you can use which ever language you feel most comfortable with. -

Re: Woodhouse College Q&A ThreadAre you sure? All this time I thought we were working in vb2005 since that's what the book goes through :/(Original post by dying-divinity)

Not that it probably makes much of a difference -

Re: Woodhouse College Q&A ThreadYup 100% sure we are using VB.NET in Visual Studio 2008.(Original post by -Maz-)

The book goes through VB 2005, Pascal and C# right... But the preliminary material is released in many more languages than this including Java, Python etc.
Don't worry too much about it There's really not much difference.
