[ntoskrnl]

Which para talked about MINERAL RESOURCES? and which one talked about ASTRONOMY?
can anyone please describe the Paras.

On the flow-chart,Was there anything like TAXI in the answers Where they talked about ppl working past 9pm. What wld not be available for them? Thanks

As far as I know, taxi was mentioned in the text, but this is not what we were supposed to answer.
Taxi is provided only under certain conditions, like: this is not a regular overtime, there is no public transport available...
So, as far as I remember, we had to put “public transport” in the blank.

 

[Sandman236]

So nervous about the results....

 

[Marymoon]

Has Anyone done Academic? Which were the reading subjects?
