GCSE EDEXCEL ICT UNIT 1 EXAM 17th MAY 2017

Hi,

I was wondering whether anyone has any predictions for the exam that is tomorrow. Also, this could be a place to share information and answers for after the exam, if need be 😊

Guys how important is the technology update? And are you just supposed to research the stuff in it?

Oh right okay, thank you. Of course, I don't mind. Before it was sent off for moderation, I got 70/80 (A*) for my coursework and my overall target is A/A* 😊

I'd say it's quite important because my ICT teacher says the paper is written by Christmas and the context in it is written based on recent events. I'd probably research a little bit about it, as it can be quite helpful and informative. I wouldn't stress too much about it, as I've not seen it in the revision guide (or specification, although I've not looked at it properly) 😊

Everyone is so clueless about what's going to come up man.

I got 69/80 and the jokes were not worth being one mark off of an A* :frown:

That's true. But we can still guess things e.g. new technologies such as virtual reality etc.

Well done! That's really good! You never know, the grade boundary for it might become lower this year. Even if they don't, you're taking an A (60%) into the exam, so do your best in the exam and you'll be alright 😊
