I'm worrying about one of my Controlled Assessments for OCR GCSE's Computing (A453)

You should be fine. Why should you worry if you cheated if you didn't? Anyways one page evaluations are fine, I did them myself. Also a moderator can't just assume you should suck at programming just because the rest of your class does. Unless you copied all your code off the internet which they can check, you will be fine. Be a bit more confident with your work . I also think one page evaluations are fine, even if you didn't do any evaluation for all three questions it just means you won't get full marks, they won't think you're a cheater.

What are the rules for this anyway?

I actually think I did do longer than one page evaluations, I was probably just estimating.

My main worry is that since I have such a large page count it'll contrast with the rest of my class and make me look as if I took the work home (which is impossible in itself due to email system issues :/).

I think you need to relax lol. You're innocent till proven guilty. Even if they suspect you, they will have to investigate and they will get nowhere since you didn't cheat. They can't just bin your work because they suspect you to be cheating.

What if they get it wrong though? I remember going in to catch-up as I missed a session due to a doctor's appointment but I don't even know. :/

Thank you. I'm having different people saying that I've done too much and other people saying I'll be fine, so it's a bit of a whirlwind.

It's kind of hard getting the thoughts out of my head as the course means a lot to me as I like CS and would hate to have my grade compromised by the amount of work I put into it.

I can't really remember how many words/pages exactly as I can't edit it now. It's done and been marked by a teacher, it might be moderated, I'm not sure how it works.

A moderator will easily be able to tell if you've cheated or not by the wording you've used, so you should be fine

What do you mean by that?

I use a lot of high-level vocabulary but not once did I copy from the internet or anything like that.

Jesus, 90 pages? I did about fifteen-twenty and came away with near full marks on both CAs...

One of my friends had like 131 pages for A452 and quite a lot for A453 - like 50 pages but trust me, so many words it's unbelievable. Don't worry, you'll be fine.

Well, I didn't do that many pages to just fill a quota, most of it is legit just the code in screenshots and tons of testing.

It's not, like, a thesis with tons of babble in my opinion.



Thank you, that's awesome to year.

He didn't get reported or anything like that then?

No... he's finished his GCSE this year with me.. lol and got a grade in Computing! If the teacher suspects you, they'll search and end up disqualifying you for cheating before even telling the exam board. So, if he did cheat he'd have got disqualified already.

Thanks, sorry for being a pain in the bum! I'm glad he did well (and you I suppose, hope you did well too!)I'm just worried that they'll pick me to be moderated and do the following:
"This kid has done lots of work. He's done more than his peers, maybe he did this outside of school? Hmm. Let's not take the risk." and then I'd be disqualified like that, if that makes sense?
