The paper was extremely easy. You should expect high grade boundaries.
The only question that may have posed difficulty was the 6 marker(?) regarding the data warehouse having the appearance of one question.

Hated that paper xD definitely flopped it, prob got a C meaning I got a B overall and won't make it into my firm.

How nothing specifically came up on security policy, data protection act or methodolgies surprises me.

Can people share what they wrote down for any of the questions that they remember? Would be uplifting if I know I wrote similar

It was an ok paper. The only problem was the 20 marker which was quiet difficult other than that it was ok.

The 20 marker was more INFO1/2 style IMO, having done all 3 this year

I honestly thought that was a pretty good paper; I wasn't rushed for time whatsoever meaning I had the opportunity to think about my responses before writing. I was expecting a lot more of development methodologies, security and more on the system life cycle. Though there was one guy in my class who stopped writing about half an hour into the exam and didn't write anything at all for the remaining time and I was sat there like 'what are you doing?!'.

Otherwise, seemed like an alright exam in my opinion; wrote about four pages for the 20 marker and I loved the question on investigation and recording techniques!

Difference between internet and extranet

Something like why is formal project management good for system development

The above 6 marker

What is test harness

The table of different types of testing

Something about investigation and recording technique

Role of CIO

How can ICT, and ICT systems help business processes become more efficient and effective

Thats what I remember so far

I finished the paper in roughly 1 hour and 25 minutes and I used all the space provided. The style of questions asked made it very easy to finish the questions at a good pace.
Well I messed up the test harness question, didn't remember that one 😰.

Not talking about the style of the question I was blank on what to write for it.
What is an asset register system? Had to guess that question :biggrin:

IT departments are often the most asset rich departments in the organisation, with responsibilities for buying, commissioning, repairing and disposing. Using the latest asset management technology is the most cost-effective way to keep track of your ICT equipment, stay compliant with regulations, and conduct audits.
