Anyone who has done these two, what are your views on these?

Personally, I did find some questions of great difficulty.

I only lost 1 mark on the NEAP exam, I think I found that alright in terms of difficulty, majority of questions were straightforward and no real wtf questions, most of my class found it accessible and my teacher said I shouldn't be surprised if VCAA delivered a harder exam. For the TSSM one, I lost about 5 marks, I think mainly due to careless mistakes on the power transmission question. The rest of the paper was prettty straightforward (except for some fucked up diagrams). There was only one question requiring an explanation which was not (at that stage) on my cheat sheet, the one about discrete energy levels and the dual nature of matter.
