The first part covers data, information and knowledge, how you use them and emphasizes the need of technology to manage data. It also asses your knowledge a how ICT is used in society and tool for accessing and using knowledge.
One good idea is to review your knowledge in theatrical as pect of following terms and practical application. While you need to understand the what, why, how of these keywords, you also need to remember some important information like protocols used in technologies, abbreviations etc.

Special Note :
In preparing for MCQ, best idea is to read the relevant theory, rather than attempting whole heap of part MCQs. Remember MCQ give 4 wrong answers and one right question. This makes students to panic at exams trying to put his all his knowledge for answering the question. One good method is not trying to find right answer, but eliminating wrong ones considering facts and reaching the right answer automatically.
