I found it pretty difficult. I had no clue what to do for that scope question or whatever it was, and the last question was pretty bad too imo. But there's no point in stressing about it now I guess

Our 12 marker was on IDE tools and High lvl vs low lvl which I cooked on but I think I messed up the Boolean algerbra .

As to reposted my statement as I think it's very sneaky or definitely in the slightest off-putting for WJEC to produce a exam like that, which features most of the topics that are more than likely to come up in the Unit 2 next week. Not to mention the fact that Unit 2 shouldn't even be an exam as it is more like a NEA under exam times.

For unit 2 it’s the same paper every year as soon as you fix the provided code copy and paste it into the new form and just change it to meet the papers needs - do all the past papers and try to finish the coding part in 15 mins or less

I found it easy as hell, although mine was a resit. They didn't ask the major questions that most people revised for. Like no networking or protocols, no storage but yeah decent imo. Just get good ganggggggyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!

Did anyone else just talk about parameter passing by reference and by value for the the parameter question?
