As Salamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh World!
Contrary to the previous exam, the Foundations of Computing
exam was only partially multiple choice. There were a total of 14 questions for
10 marks each, 6 of which were not multiple choice. Another difference was that
there could be more than one right answer for each of the 8 mcqs so the mind
games increased exponentially. The only thing that was completely the same was
the 2 hour duration.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a question with all 4 answers
being correct, otherwise It would mean you could easily guess and basically get
full marks. Still, even questions with 3 right answers can give you a bit of
doubt. Normally questions have 2 or 1 right answers so when you think a
question has 3 answers, be sure to double check.
Regardless, the exam was still rather elementary but hey,
that’s expected in the first year I guess especially if you’ve done A level
Computer Science. Despite a lot of people leaving early, I still decided
against it even though I finished nearly an hour early.
Hope this helps!
