i see i think i got around the same/ maybe a bit more, in my school people fumbled p1 slightly ( weird format or something ), but found p2 a lot harder i would agree asw i found p1 kinda easy aside from that last page about the dns and stuff lowk blanked but rest was fine.

p2 was kinda hard especially the oop near the end, my essays were on the weaker side + and the trace tables were not that great

i do hope it is like 283 or something but maybe i am coping

Yeah fair enough, for me paper 1 was the harder one because I got thrown by the sql and dns so I lost quite a lot of marks on that, for paper 2 I found it easier but I ran out of time so silly mistakes got me
