YAY i sorta did that, but instead I mixed them up in the different 3 sections, do you think theyll still give me the marks even if security issues is under Management of data?

i said ATM's because i saw it in a mark scheme for menus i made up a answer saying that users have limited access so not confused with programming and security is increased as limited options are available and no extensive training needs or it litercay required and the rest same as u

BlueAngel- I felt the same

all good except essay- the URL question got me a bit too.

Likewise I could only think of 3 good menu points and the last one was a blag.

those "1 advantage 1 disadvantage for type of software development" were a brilliant mark getter. I had learnt those all :smile:

even better was the backup strategy!!!!

for my menu system I said "a ticket booking terminal" I think that should be acceptable.

To establish the end user requirements. Is dat right?

meeting question was a bit dodgey, only a 1 or 2 marker I think- I ended up saying an ICT4 answer on the lines of "communication between 2 parties so they understand what's going on and can report back to staff so they are informed about the change and less likely to resent the new system"

well, in my opinion the end user requirements are part of the evaluation criteria under functionality.

But I was tempted to right that- it could be right.
Is 72 out of 90 an A?


I need an A, and I know I lost marks for the menu question, the software leasing one and the essay question.

So I predict myself 70 out of 90, arghhhhhh thats not an A is it. :frown:
