I am thinking of giving accelerated next year in May/June. Do you know any good teachers? I've heard of sir Zafar Ali Khan but don't know how well he teaches. Also what grades did you get?

Got an A. Sir Zafar Ali Khans notes are available online so you can look them up. Not a whole lot of official material available though, so you'll have to Google most of the stuff, or incidentally, your teacher will. P1 is theory and pretty similar in style to the O-Level Computer Studies (or Computer Science for you lot) paper. P2 is programming and for that you'll need to practice writing code in Visual Basic (probably what you'll be using)/Python/Pascal. The code will be a bit more complex, but the syllabus usually details exactly what you need to know, so it won't pose much of a problem. You can check the papers we gave: http://gceguide.com/papers/A Levels/Computer Science (9608)

Sounds cool. I already have his As notes. Already done with a few topics. I am thinking of doing As by myself and get classes of A2 only. Is this a good idea?
