I watched the CraigNDave video for each spec point of computers and networks, then at the end of each video blurted all of the information I could remember. This is a good way to review specific terminology which is very common in these topics. Practice questions are also great.

Not too sure, other than the fact that a flow-chart is very likely to come up (it comes up every year). Also, I think that the six marker might be on networks, since the last two years have been decomposition and abstraction, and ethics around AI, and there was one surrounding computers on the sample paper.
