    Wjec gcse ict
    Is anyone doing WJEC GCSE ICT? I've got the Unit 1 exam on Friday and the Unit 3 in a couple weeks, but I'm wondering how everyone is revising? Especially for Unit 1, some things seem to easy to revise, but then again I got a B in it last year :L

    yeah I'm doing this exam tomorrow, I only started revising today which was rather dumb of me as I just realised how much there actually is to learn! Quite scared tbh. I got an A* last year this time so I just hope I can achieve that again

    Doing some last minute cramming now hahaha. How on Earth did you get an A*?! Grade boundaries were go ridiculous. Came out thinking I got an A, got a B . But if you got an A*, why are you retaking? Good luck!

    Wasn't too bad Really happy when I saw the last (12 mark) question because I had just gone over home entertainment the night before Kicking myself over the fact that I didn't write about mobiles though. What about you?

    Same, really want an A*, but A will be okay I guess (got A*s in CW). Fingers crossed that they're lenient with their marking!
