My apologies! Please take note that the last should be ATEC 1 instead of APEC. For those of you who have submitted your answers, you can re-submit just the last term instead of submitting the whole table again. Sorry for any inconvenience caused! :S

You should change the APEC to ATEC in the table, so that people who hasn't scrolled below won't send in their answers wrongly, even though you posted another post saying that it's been changed. And you won't get multiple emails from the same person. Just a suggestion (:
