Computer Science A Level NEA Examples?

Soon making a start on my A Level Computing NEA (AQA). My teacher flicked through the examples really quickly, so I was wondering if any of you happen to have exemplar ones that scored high marks?

I'm aiming for top marks, and I know a lot of the marks come from writing, so I just want to see how it's structured.

It would be greatly appreciated!

You can check out my project here: https://github.com/mcttn22/school-project/. My teacher gave it a provisional grade of A*. Hope this helps

Hi, is your project like the minimum someone should do to get an A* or is it over the top because half the stuff you got I have zero understanding of and still kinda wanna get an A* on the NEA

Some parts of it might be a bit over the top because I enjoyed it, but I mainly followed this guidance for the report and referred to the markscheme to make sure I had enough techniques in my code. I don't think project itself has to be complicated to get an A* - it's more about your report meeting the criteria and showing enough skills. Hopefully seeing the basic structure of my project helps
