Practical Advice | IGCSE ICT

There are two practical exams. Each one is 2.5 hours long. Together they test a wide range of practical skills.

The format of the exams is a series of steps - each step requires you to demonstrate a particular skill, and there are lots of them!

There is no shortcut... you will have to PRACTISE!

But, hopefully, these tips will help you to gain the skills required.

The practical tips are divided into the following sections to match the practical sections of the syllabus:

1. Communication (E-Mail and Web)
2. Document Production (Word-Processing)
3. Data Manipulation (Databases)
4. Integration (Combining Stuff)
5. Output Data (Printing & Exporting)
6. Data Analysis (Spreadsheets)
7. Website Authoring
8. Presentation Authoring (Slideshows)
