No one's discussed anything on here.
What resources does anyone use for WJEC, understandably it is limited.

I find that revizee.com is good for targeted past paper practice.
Craig n Dave, Ada Computer Science and Isaac Computer Science can be good for content though there are gaps.
Careful to compare the specification and the textbook as there are some contradictory requirements.

I'm just working with classmates to make a comprehensive set of notes for reference so that issues with knowledge can be nipped in the bud.

What are your thoughts?

Does anyone know would percentage each unit is worth towards the final grade? I know that the NEA coursework is worth 20% but idk about the others.

Unit 3 and 4 are 20% each. Unit 1 is 25% and unit 2 is 15%.

It went alright. Didn't remember some stuff so might've lost maybe 20-30 marks for being too generalised.
