Well I hope everyone got it finished. But I think the general feeling about the project is that it was very unfair? It was a ridiculous amount of work for 25%?

Yeah I agree.
It was like having to make 3 projects in one.
Got it done though, seriously took a lot of time, especially from doing theory work.

Looking at my 2 brothers from the last 2years, this years project looks to have took a lot more work and it has taking a lot more money? Projects of these sizes aren't viable for schools? I recon every project cost 200+?

Well this year, many people (in my class, anyway) made a crane to transport the ball, we then had to make a scoring mechanism and a grab/suction mechanism to pick up and release the ball.
I think it was 3 years ago they had to make a crane, and that's it.
I think we were a trial run and after they hear all the complaining, next years group will get an easy project.

B2 can't complain.

Anyone know when we can collect projects?/ Post pictures or videos on internet?

My project went terrible. I'd say the hardest project they ever gave. Was the only subject I had a possibility of a high B or an A and I got a C2 cos me project was so bad
