Im bricking it big time buddy. Think the six markers will throw me off and I feel like there'll be a random definition I haven't revised to throw me off

i got an A in my controlled assessments, was just two or three marks off an A*. If I did significantly well in this I could get an A*. I told myself I'd be disappointed with an A, but the fact now that Ive struggled to revise this is making me much less hopeful

I thought it was awful. Every question they could they made it as hard as possible and how did you check the availability of drinks on the last question. Was much harder than any other paper and I hated it :'''''( Please say it wasn't just me...

i checked the availability by making a variable called "drinks = 10" then in other part of the code
"If INPUT number <20 AND >1 and drinks > 0 then..."

It was trickier than the mocks. I left out the availability bit because I thought it'd just lose me marks on the other stuff as I'd have to change it! Some questions were very weirdly worded and on the whole, it was a nasty paper I think. I have full UMS on the coursework so I'm hoping I can still get an A*
