How to get an A* in ICT IGCSE?

[darklashbazinga]

My sister is going to do her ICT IGCSE exam in Oct/Nov 2012 and she wants to aim for an A as minimum but but she desperately needs an A* in this subject. Shes got a C and she needs an A* this time. Any advice from people with A*'s or A's?
Thank you

Personally I just did all the variants for summer and winter of 2011, didn't bother with any earlier papers because the question formats are all very similar. Since you're doing yours this winter, I recommend you do the summer 2012 and winter 2011 papers (all variants).

2010, 2009 and old years like 2003 and 2004. I highly recommend those.

I don't know about those sites or the textbooks. I personally only studied from igcseict.info for both theory and practicals because the textbook our school gave us was very lacking.

which textbook?

We were given the official textbooks made by Cambridge press.

and can u recommend wich pst papers shuld i solve for ict for pracs and theory both
plzzzz reply me asap

my suggestion is to practice the most recent papers, if you have limited time, ie; from 2007 onwards. you can do more if you have ample time, and that will be very helpful!

if you want a good textbook, you can use IGCSE Information and Communication Technology. it's by Graham Brown and David Watson.
I've got a picture of the front cover of the book. check it!
