I found the 20 marker difficult and the internal and external ICT systems to process an order
Other than that it was ok
What did you talk about for internal, and external ICT systems, if you don’t mind 🤔

What types of data did you guys put for the ordering system question?
How did you compare maintenance and support?
How many factors did you put for the ICT strategy question?

1) I talked about customer details, address, email etc
2) I did not have a clue about that
3) I wrote 4 factors about the strategy

What about you?

I believe the question based around orders was question 7, I didn't have time to talk about that as I used the final 30 minutes to do question 8 (loved talking about security in that question).

To compare I looked at two similarities and two differences, stating their benefits and drawbacks, I've completely forgotten what I put.

I put around 3 - 5 factors in the ICT strategy question, though I did go into too much detail which wasted some time.

Hopefully I'll get a C or above, I only need 26 marks to do this, though I may surprise myself and get a B.
Ugh I think I completely screwed up the 20 marker! It was 4 paragraphs of complete waffle and I didn't even mention types of security systems apart from a firewall. Thats it. I was so confused about what they were asking for :/ :/

I wouldn't worry if you only screwed up the 20 marker. If you answered all the other questions, and have good grades in INFO1, 2 and 4, you'll get a good overall grade.

Yer I've got As in all of those so hoping losing the 20 marker doesn't drag my grade down too much cus I honestly doubt I got more than 2 marks on it 😂
