right, I was keeping quiet and all, cos I know my opinion is rather harsh, but this is why I am appaled at the course:
From my exam in “Game Technology and Entrepreneurship”

I was gonna comment at length on those actual questions, but I think it speaks for itself. Oh yes, I assure I didn’t make any mistake when quoting, it’s written like that, word for word.
You make your opinion.My favourite is that one, though:
Question 3
…
d) Describe a scene which requires multiple particle systems. (5 marks)

I shit you not…Just for those who ain’t following, this is a Post Graduate Diploma level exam. For a moment there I thought it was English 101: “Use the words ‘smoke’, ‘fire’ and ‘rain’ in a sentence. Extra marks will be earned for the correct use of a passive form verb and an adjective”.
:shock:
I could actually find excuses for the man, but … yeah right.
