To help meeeee!

A few weeks ago I was told that I had to do a Unit 5 for ICT...only a few weeks, that's not long I thought to myself, but work on it I did and created a luvly site and everything...tadaa!

All jolly good I see you thinking, however yesterday (well thursday) my teacher says 'the exam board have changed their mind, you have to do unit 8 instead!' "errr when's the dealine sir?" 'tomorrow' "*can not repeat what i said back*"

So today I have been working a lot and stressing a lot more, i've done most of the work though or at least i'm in a position to do it. However...
the email address that he's given me doesn't work (oh yay) so i cant send the work to him. He was gunna turn some word documents into pdf format for me so that I could put them onto a e-portfolio at home on a laptop that doesn't even have microsoft word on it...but hey.

I basicaly need to do this myself now, and I don't know how If someone could be kind enough to tell me I would be

Any other ideas about what the hell I can/should do are greatly appreciated

sorry m8, love to help but i cant
I hope you succeed, tell us if you do please

hmmmm tricky situation...i would opt for the choice of blowing the exam HQ up thus giving more time however we cant so as much as id like to say your screwed...i wont lol (although i jus did) anyway erm i wish i could tell you which i cant really however my cousin is a computer technician so might be able to help if you want to send files to me via email let me know please!

maybe you could copy and paste this in word or something and send it to ur cousin guest999.

Google is most definitely your friend.
First hit, tested and it works.

there ya go im an old git so what do i know?
well done oli, sounds impressive

I typed: Converting .doc files to PDF
Into Google. Easily impressed tids?

First of all, i'd write a bloody big letter of complaint about what has been done to you. I doubt very much an exam board would do this, and it's more than likely your teacher got it wrong! What a git!

However if your exam board done this too you, then complain about them as it's not acceptable behaviour. <end of rant>

I can do that. I have acrobat. Or you can do it yourself.
Download openoffice from openoffice.org.

Its a completely free office suite and the word processor has the ability to convert to basic pdf format. I won't be on the game much today (hopefully) studying but if you give your e-mail address to a mod on pool or snooker, have them to post it on the staff forum and I'll get it of them and mail you, I can do it in a matter of seconds.

Making fake signatures on paint is fun

Speshly for my headteacher (need to 'prove' i've had meetings lol)

And ty magic i'll take you up on that :)

Still need to finish all the documentaion yet tho...and my dad keeps moaning at me to do the washing up lol

Aw Beaker ....*hugs* Tell them all (Headteacher and dad) To DO ONE and go and play golf bab! haha

OH! I take thast back...Play pool instead
No am sorry,,go on,go do ur work

You shouldn't be asked to provide .pdf's unless the university supplies conversion tools to you.

(not that it matters now but i'd mention it to them if i were you!)

If by chance you're stuck anytime give me a PM if i'm online, be glad to help.

Hehe i'm not at university

I need to do this in order to get there though...

I need pdf files because the exam board wont accept word documents in my e-portfolio. Which i need to do on dreamweaver which i dont have so i've had to 'acquire' it *cough* anyhoo...

pdf files aren't a requirement but i dont have time to make myself a big 60 odd page protfolio so this is the only logical direction i felt I could go in.

Also my 6th form has received all the funding they are gunna get from me so they wont pay out for me to do anything, they'd rather me fail and go back next year

*insert naughty word* school

Unit Started = 9am Friday 11th May.

Deadline = 6pm Sunday 13th May.

Completed = 5.56pm Sunday 13th May.

GET IN!

However a few minor problems...i've forged some signatures so i'll be arrested for plagerism(however u spell that) and also I can't send it to my teacher as i keep getting failures 'daemon mailer' or whatever it is when i try to send anything. So i'm screwed anyways.

I have a 6 hour exam 2moro that I haven't had time to revise for oh yay!


Would like to thank all that helped, couldn't have done it without some of you
