    OCR F453: Advanced Computing Theory (26th January 2011)
    Pre/Post exam discussion for the OCR F453 Computing exam.

    Does anybody have any resources they can share to help revision?

    Here are some things I have made or found:
    F453 Notes From: Robadob
    Computing Site From: Mr. Gazz
    F453 Revision Booklet From: JonathanJon (Me)

    How do you feel it's going?

    i have not started revision yet.
    i did however do exactly the same for f451 andf452 where i got an A in both.
    i hope im not being arrogant but i also have chem4 on wed which is going to require a lot of revision to day and tomorrow.

    I find i can only revise from notes/revision guides as text books are too long winded and i have found out today that my teacher doesnt have a revision guide for this suubject. So please please please if you have any resources they would be of great help. ill keep updated how well im doing

    Hi, I'm new here, yet I want to show you my appreciation for uploading those revision materials, so here are mine:
    http://www.speedyshare.com/files/264...3_REVISION.zip

    However I don't think I'll find exam particularly easy to do, especially when I'm expected to do C4 maths at exact same time (hope they'll let me choose whichever I want to do first and in that case I'll definitely go with computing). You can find past papers and mark schemes on ocr website... Good luck

    How did you all find it?

    They liked asking about procedural high level languages!
    I found the SQL relatively nice, and the mantissa and exponent were good.
