yeha.. u think it is easy... .. that's what i tho as well... but if u didn't write more during the trial, u will get a low mark...

of course quality + quantity...
everyone though, it is just about computer.... really... it is not just about computers, computers,computers all the time..

if u know what is an information system, then u will know what is IPT

It's probably the mis-conception of, i know how to download MP3's, play them, use ICQ, MSN, mIRC, and you know how to browse the net, will equate to knowing alot about computers and hence allowing you to cruise easy in a computer subject, but most idiots from my school thought like that, and they always thought i was a genius, when in fact i wasn't, i just tended to use my time more productively and actually read up about computing, you gotta enjoy it to know it well.

IPT isn't hard, personally i just apply personal knowledge and common sense...

however a big mis-conception of it is IPT is NOT computer based, it can be done pen and paper FINE!, however computers are just used to help you along the way,

Do the work, or at least half of it and it's easy to get some decent marks.. unfortunatly from what i know it gets scalled badly becasue people just do it and slack off all year etc.

i don't think ipt is hard, it just has alot of homework.. but alot of it is very easy..

people believe that it scales down.. but i don't believe it, because less and less people are doing the subject..

It's not hard, it's just tedious having to remember crap to regurgiate in an exam.

This subject is all theory. All you do is study a textbook to remember a bunch of stuff that you will never use again.

IPT is just like any subject... its not hard if you enjoy it, if you dont enjoy it you are going to struggle. But if you do enjoy it, and work hard... then you will get a good mark.

Oh, n 2 add to my previous post... i also found that if you have a good teacher you will do well. In reading a lot of the posts on here over the last 2 years it seems that a lot of ipt teachers are crap... luckily i ended up with a teacher that i liked and that, in my opinion, taught well. I sucked at legal studies coz the teacher made it so boring so pretty much you cant say whether ipt is hard or not, or if its boring or not... it all depends on too many factors and also the individual student.

Its an easy subject but dont expect good marks if you dont put ANY work in.

Im going pretty average with a low amount of work and no homework at all so im pretty happy but id say band 5-6 would be easy on a little bit more work than im doing.

Worthwhile but i gotta say its boring.
