Okay so I chose iMedia as one of my options in year nine because at the time I thought having a coursework subject would give me a good variety of balance work/revision.
I'm now in year 11 and really struggling!
In computing through school I was always top of the class, finishing early, helping other students. I was assured by my teachers that should I chose it, I would be on track for a level 2 distinction or distinction*.
The course was not at all what I expected and I'm really struggling!! I don't know what any of the tasks are and obviously my teacher can't really help because it's coursework. I failed one part of my first practice piece of coursework and that took a massive hit on my confidence and self-esteem. I knew I had struggled on it because I didn't know what we were doing but I still worked so unbelievably hard (4+ hours at home extra). We've now started the actually coursework and I have so much anxiety and stress because I want to do well!!
The exam is still set to be in January (4 months!!!!!) and I still don't fully understand what I need to revise.
The resources are vague and the textbook/revision guide confusing.
Please please if someone has any advice let me know!
