I did A Level ICT, I can't say it was particularly enjoyable though (I chose to do it as it happened to be my best subject at GCSE). I wasn't really interested in any of the topics, however the content wasn't very difficult to learn. The most challenging aspect of the course was definitely the coursework, which was incredibly time consuming and got quite stressful as the deadlines approached.

If you think the content looks interesting and you're willing to put a lot of time and effort into the coursework, then I'd say go for it

I did AS ICT. The exam is quite easy and the coursework can be fun but you had to do a lot of documentation which was a bit boring

I'm doing A2 ICT (aqa) right now. For AS ICT,the coursework was not much, also the subject itself was pretty interesting. The coursework for A2 does get pretty heavy though.

I'm doing AS AQA ICT and I'm enjoying every minute of it. Of course, it helps that I already have an interest in it and my teacher is an absolute saint who I've had since year nine.

But the course is pretty good in itself.

IBM Industry Solutions Executive, Dr Simon Eassom, said, ‘If we have access to every book available online, why does a school need a library? IT has the potential to revolutionise what we do with teaching and learning at all levels, from nursery to old age. If the classroom is the World Wide Web (WWW), where is the classroom?’
