Hey guys, Just thought I'd make a thread for this exam, since there is not one that already exists to share revision techniques/notes and/or what is most likely to come up

If it's anything like G061 this year there won't be an 11 mark question in the paper, but can't be certain so revise them just in case.

There are usually two 11 markers in G063; there was 1 last year and 2 in almost every other year. They did break tradition for G061, but be prepared to receive one or two in the exam or even none

Yes, I resat that paper this year and was surprised that the there was no 11 marker, although it was a great surprise! What do you think might come up as the 11 marker(s)?
Attached is a write up of all my notes for the G063 exam
Thank you for uploading these! They are great! I would also recommend the following revision notes that I'm using at the moment. They have exam questions with them as well: http://www.markhunter.org/ict/a-level/g063/g063.htm
I noticed the grade boundaries last year 2015 was quite high compared to the previous years. I did a June 2014 paper and got 90/120 which is around 70% and you needed 79/120 to get an A!
But I looked at June 2015's paper and it was kinda hard/iffy - not as easy as January 2013.
Here is my notes as well, very condensed but its combination of the mark scheme answers and the book. Just gonna keep memorising these until I sleep. And can someone please explain the 11 markers, I have not done any of topic 6 just because I only need 62 UMS for a B which is all I need from ICT, so I should be able to eliminate it from my revision and focus on the others. What do you have to talk about in those questions? How do you answer them. Take this as a return for my notes

Well, mostly, the 11 markers are almost always on 'Hardware and software' and 'Managing change in a system' so really, I would advise you to thoroughly revise them, even if there is a slim possibility that there may not be an 11 mark question in this paper. We cannot take that risk!

Alright thanks. My teacher said that even you you just write anything on those questions, as long as you English is good and your answer is well structured you will get up to 5 marks just for that.

How did you guys do?? I thought that was ok, but omg, no system life cycle questions? 2 11 marker but one without the discuss thing. For the hardware or software for the privacy question, I chose webcam as it is bio-metric, what did you guys choose?

I chose social networking for the final question, provided more to talk about imo. There were systems lifecycle related questons, but I am quite glad alot of networking came up as it is my strongest chapter
