I'm in S3 so these are the only ones I got:

1) 11100011 (max mark 1)
2) To allow OTHER PROGRAMMERS to understand the main purpose/understand the code (max mark 1)
3) The database can't be edited as data can not be changed in ROM, therefore must be contained in RAM (max mark 1)
4) Options are available/ Less chance of human error/(or any other reasonable suggestion) (max mark 1)
5) To temporarily hold memory until it is ready to be dealt with by the processor (max mark 1)6) two other types of software found in a security suite are:
FIRWALL
ANTI-MALWARE SOFTWARE (max mark 2)
7) criminals can commit identity theft through the use of:
Spyware (1) / hacking (1) / phishing (1)
(Max mark 2)


10) Lucy would use a query (1) OR perform a COMPLEX search (1) (max mark 1)

13) There is no search bar (1) / There are no breadcrumbs (1) / The "login" input do not specify what needs to be typed in (1) / The "arrow" does not specify the location of the website it is pointing to (1) / The radio buttons' designs are not consistent (1)/ The radio buttons are not labelled sensible ("radio button 1","radio button 2"etc.)/ any other suitable response (1) (Max mark 2)

15) The primary key must be UNIQUE, however "Route ID" contains repetitive values, therefore is not suitable to be a primary key (1)
(Max mark 1)

B) Problem 1: there may be duplication of data (1)
Problem 2: insertion/deletion anomalies (1)
(Max mark 2)

C) relational database (1) (Max mark 1)

D) The "aircraft code" field type is TEXT (1) (Max mark 1)

E) restricted choice check (1) (Max mark 1)

ii) exceptional: any value between 1-6 (1)
Extreme; any value >6 (1)
(Max mark 2)

F) complex sort on the field of "price" in Ascending order(1), AND on the field of "depart" in Ascending order (1)
(Must be in this order to obtain 2 marks)

17) a) hierarchical (1)
B) site design (1)
C) a hyperlink takes the user to another webpage (1)
(Total marks: 3)

17) e) a hyperlink which takes the user to a webpage out with the current page they are in (1)

Ii) Uniform Resource Locator (1)

iii) 5x7x600^2
=1260000 x 24
=302400000\8
=37800000\1024
=36914.0625 KB/1024
=36.0488 MB
= 36 MB (3)

I will post up the rest later, but I am only in S3, therefore am sorry that I have left some of the solutions out. If any of them are wrong feel free to flag up to me. Thanks x

Thanks a lot! I lost 4 marks here and considering that this was about 29 marks out of 90 I don't think I done that bad in the rest of the paper. Hopefully an A

NI problem! I'll have the rest up later!
Are you able to post the actual question paper so I can see what question is with what answer ?

haha thanks :smile:

I'm hoping for at least 60/90 for an A but looking at them answers I'm not to confident :P

Yeah that happens quite often, Try a photo uploading site like http://imgur.com/ and try uploading it there and post the link here.

I don't have a particular question it's mostly the exam as a whole. For example if it was 3 marks I would have probably gained 2 out of the 3.
