Which Computer Science exam board is most similar to WJEC/Eduqas?

Hi all,

I have just started Computer Science at A-level on the WJEC/Eduqas board. I have found a lot of resources, but they are from different exam boards (usually AQA or OCR) so I was wondering which exam board(s) are most similar to the one that I am taking.

I am looking for exam questions on the data representation + data types topic btw.

Thanks in advance.

Hey, it was quite a while back now, but I think the main resource I used other than the textbook was: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/A-level_Computing/WJEC_(Eduqas) N.B. I don't think it is complete.

There should be loads of exam questions available now for this exam board, so I wouldn't bother looking at other exam boards as they are too different. Also, IIRC each year there are two sets of papers (WJEC and Eduqas)?

Here are my notes if it is helpful: https://coordinated-oak-bf5.notion.site/Computer-Science-A-level-Eduqas-WJEC-27ad0ec8546e433d940d4308975ba0fe?pvs=4

I've made a wjec/eduqas focused tool. It's mostly WJEC at the moment but will be complete soon (hopefully ASAP).
revizee.com, it has all unit 3 past paper questions and nearly all unit 4 questions (which will be finished in a few weeks). In the blog bit, I also wrote articles with resources I've compiled for unit 3 and unit 4. Hope that helps!
