GCSE I.T

[Barmi]

dont do ict, in the first year i found it like really easy but with the last piece of coursework we barely had any time to do it and then left us no time to revise for the exam - ive got to learn everything i can about ict by myself

The exam isn't particularly difficult though? The majority of it is common sense, which admittedly may not be as common as it should be.

my friend took ICT and shes just finishing it this year cos Exams are soon
its very hard to pass the second coursework
only 2 people in her class passed the rest of people failed it.
she and 1 other made it with A*
i hear the course is really good, but coursework is really hard

Firstly, you can't get an A* with GCSE IT, an A is the maximum you can get. And secondly, I took it, and its really easy!

DO NOT PICK ICT, possibly the stupidest mistake i have ever made. So much damned coursework

[kk.]

as people have said, ICT (when i did it) was 40% coursework. In my project which was about a B was about 120 pages.

hmm, if you want to learn about Web designing and stuff i suggest waiting until A Levels and taking a course at a college that offers the option. I cant remember what the course is called but oh just have a look around

ict is so much fun :]
yeah it's alot of coursework
but i never really had to go back to finish it cause you can do it in the lessons easily if you don't chat all lesson. I talked for half of my lesson time and i still finished with A* in year 10 and my year 11 work is ungraded as of yet.
60% coursework 40% test.

my test is tomorrow, yikes! :]
the boundaries are low too, its only like 70% for an A

[Titch]

DAM! i got this tomorrow

Maybe i find it more work because it's an extra thign for me. Outside the normal timetable, thursday afterschool and wednesday lunch on top of all my other work. there's only 20/1000 people doing it as we all got picked
