ICT is the biggest pile of **** I have ever done, I expected a lot more but its just sit on the computer for two years and do some crappy coursework the teachers doesn't give a crap about and the exam is nonsense


Am i the only one who noticed/ found it weird that 'nipple' was listed under 'Pointing Devices' ...... o.O
Roughly how are you all going to structure your answer to the 6 mark question(s)? Will you make 6 points?

ICT is honestly the biggest piece of sht I have done. I have NO IDEA why I chose it!


This has nothing to do with ICT, but did you get your username from 'Of Mice and Men' (and are you, by any chance, studying that for GCSE?) why did you chose 'Curley's wife'? I'm curious...

Yeah it's based on the novella, "Of Mice and Men". I'm really hoping for the literature question to be based on her character, because I have loads to talk about e.g. Marxism, Feminism, Women's rights 1930s etc...

My technique: write anything and everything I think of. :smile:
3 mid length paragraphs, one mark for the point and the second forvan explanation. Hopefully if u stick to that rule you can get the full six marks without a doubt.

That's what I put, and for the gender question, I just put that some applications may be seen as stereotypically more feminine and therefore appeal to the female gender more.

What did you guys put for the last 6 marker? I just made up a load of BS about how IT skills are essential in a modern society and some of the advantages/disadvantages of having access to the Internet and other similar tech :s-smilie:

one of the worst it exams ive ever done, questions were worded really poorly and it's sort of like the exam board needed to put in hard questions so they added questions that were just moronic
