what did people answer for the question about wire drawing? (the bit to do with CAD)

also are they allowed to ask us about that because I couldnt find anything about it in the WJEC textbook?

yes they can, not only is it best to read the WJEC textbook, but find the WJEC exam notes on various school sites-some have them!

they ask Qs like this for students that think outside of the box; what i mean by this is that they ask Qs to see if students have read outside of the classroom and done individual studying around the topics

however the topic wasn't in the spec so technically they shouldnt.

Hey, I was thinking of getting a remark too for the WJEC ICT papers, for the exam I got a D, 68/120 which I was predicted a B but I felt as though I would possibly make an A due to reading the text book 3 times & doing many past papers, plus finding the exam really good.

I got 62/80 for the coursework which my teacher said id make an A when he marked it in class.

I swear I was marked wrongly for the exam , your not alone.

I got 78/120 (c) in the exam
74/80 (a) in the coursework

Their marking is seriously wrong and have sent the exam off for a remark

Not happy

I know how you feel. I did not do ICT at gcse and the A2 coursework is confusing at times.

Good Luck for the January resit

Reeally strange exam, my first sitting I got a really low D (pretty much an E) done almost nothing extra for my resit and got a decent B. I even felt I done much better on my first sitting. I don't know how the hell they are marking this exam. Their specimen/old mark schemes are riddled with errors. I guess just hope for a decent marker.

Hey, how far are you through the coursework? I have made tables, forms and queries, and added a few validation rules in there aswell, my teacher said the testing 'phase' is a long part of it, and no one in our group has reached that stage yet

I have done the tables, input masks, validation rules and queries. When I go back on tuesday we will be doing the calculations and forms.

[nataliexo]

i've done most of it though
well we're about 3/4 of the way there!

we've been doing the design, implementation and testing altogether
so like all the things to do with queries, tables, reports, forms etc!
just have the evaluation, user guide and that lot to do

[Scooby1964]

Has anyone started the modelling spreadsheet for IT1 yet? If so what are you doing it on? All ideas appreciated

[nroy]

Hi guys! im doing a WJEC exam on ict, i was jusrt wondering how the heck do you get a decent grade in it! do wjec had text books? or anything?!. Hope you guys can get back to me xx

[Scooby1964]

The best text books are called "Essential ICT for WJEC" there's a book for AS and another for A2

I'd get hold of a copy of the spec from their web site too

Other than that, you just need some kind of mind reading skills to work out what the question is asking!

For what it's worth, WJEC is waaaaayyyyyy better than OCR!

[planetconwy1]
