Are you resiting or? Anyhow it is one of the most pointless and easiest Alevels you can do, I completely dossed around in ICT lessons and still got an A eventhough I had a D in info 4 the coursework. Just make sure you know how to answer the qs as they are repetitive as f**k and look at how many marks is each q worth and write a point per mark.

The paper last year was different to the others so I’m confused what do I need to revise? I don’t have the time to revise for it and I cannot spend more than 3/4 days on it cuz I’ve got still 10 exams to go

Just revise past papers. Loads of repeated questions from year to year! You will be fine!

My predictions on questions:

1) 20 marker either a question about the ICT needed when going on holiday or the ICT needed when an entrepreneur sets up a business!

2) 10-12 marker about either testing or input, output processing.

3) 10-12 marker about system or application software.

4) Health and safety as it relates to ICT

Hahaha sorry and don’t worry I’m a resort for info 2 not info 1 good luck though if your a resit for info 1🍀
Guysssss i tried to do those past papers but they’ve got a few of them and not Really much. In maths they’ve got like 10000 past papers and in ict Ikust found like 10 past papers sooo is that the one I need to revise or ?
I’ve found a page (freeexampapers.com) and they’ve got every single paper but I’m confused cuz they’ve got about 100 papers and not every paper is about info 2 so i don’t know which paper to look ar
Does anyone have any predictions of what would come up for info 2.
I feel like for the 20 marker a question on section 9 - consequences of the use of ICT may come up as there has not been a question on it in a while. Im not sure tho, its just a guess :smile:

Do you think they'd be sneaky enough to put in anything about GDPR in a legislation question?
