Unit 7 - Database Management and Unit 8 - Project Management are compulsory in the A2 year. Plus, one of Unit 10 (multimedia), Unit 11 (spreadsheets), or Unit 12 (customising applications). Your centre will usually choose one of the last three as a favourite.

Units 10, 11, 12 are straightforward creating things with a writeup. Unit 8 is difficult because you have to do things in the right order and it's a very fast pace. Usually you do this along with the choice (10, 11, 12) all at the same time. Unit 8 is project managing the production of the item you'll be producing in 10, 11, or 12. Unit 7 is like Unit 3. It's an exam on data handling (ie databases). You'll have pre-release materials and your teacher will help you understand how to tackle the problem when you're in the exam. I personally think that Unit 8 is the hardest (timing, keeping track), then Unit 7 (figuring out things in the exam).

Unit 8 is ok but remember you get lots of marks for your comunication so make sure you have emails, memos, letters etc together with agenda and minutes of all the meetings you hold.
