It can't be that bad if you are spending all this time posting at IW. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Anyway, it looks like you only have to revise 8/11ths of the course, which helps. Having looked at the subjects involved, I think I've found area that is certainly worth concentrating on..

Paper 3 Electronics (3hours) choose 8 questions out of 11
..., Flip-Flops,....

There really can't be much to know about this item of footwear.

Ok, some real advice; get hold of as many past papers as you can, and do them under exam like conditions. Also, even if you think you can get away with only knowing bit of the course, make sure you look at least read through the rest (or even more than that) - one of the questions you banked on being ok, might turn out to be a real b***h (I'm speaking from experience here). Hope this helps.
