It's not actually a case then. It's a case standard, specification.

Thats what i mean, im ment to get a qualification from this!

Very badly worded.

"Case" means Lian Li PC-7 or whatever; what case format/standard/spec is the question they've answered.

Oooh thats appaling mate. The question should have read "what is the most popular computer case standard?" if they wanted ATX to be the answer.

Might be worth pointing it out to your tutor.

Every question seemed like this to me on my course :rolleyes:

. I ended up quitting aswell as the poor tutoring.

tbh 5 years ago I was doing this Btec
it sucked then and it sucks now, I learned more from a year at another college doing electronics and teaching the other kids (I was 18 by then) the IT side of the course as the teacher was off ill (broke himself in a go cart) and the only other guy who was avail didn't know his arse from his elbow

If only the other people around me knew the poor quality of the course, they would realise I wasn't a failure and just didn't want to waste my time!
