It was a good exam overall - I have to say, a harder paper than usual though. I'm thinking 50-55 for an A*

Maybe, the GBs will stay relatively low

What did you guys get for the question about RSS and why the video couldn't be played on that trains network or something along those lines?

The train question
The connection was being shared between passengers so streaming would require high bandwidth which would cause high latency for the others using the connection so pages would load too slowly and be unresponsive.

For train question I wrote if you stream videos then you will be using up more bandwidth, therefore other people will be affected as their connection would be slower, thus its unfair and would ruin the user experience.

For RSS feed I wrote it's used to post updated information so the users of Sarah's blog will always know when she posts something new which makes it more user friendly.

I was initially gonna write about illegal video viewing and whatever.. and then i saw the image LOL. Thank god. My answer was about the ned for a lot of bandwidth and it would reduce the amount available for the other passengers, making it very slow for them

Multi-choice questions were so much harder than expected. The exam was harder than the past papers I've done, there were more 3 mark questions that 2 mark questions. Really annoying.
