 Successful ICT Projects in Excel April 2, 2003
I think that this is a grand read, full of interesting facts about the use of Excel for the completion of a successful As level ICT Project. I strongly recommend it to any hopeful ICT student! Thankyou Mr Heathcote!

I bought this book expecting it to show students how to put together a successful AS Level project. Unfortunately it does nothing of the kind, neither covering the advanced features nor explaining how to document the project.OK if you're happy with a grade D.
A Successful ICT Project Indeed! September 26, 2002

I used this book to help with my AS-Level project for ICT. It was great! It clearly explains how to do certain formulas with examples and 'Follow Me' guidelines, (i.e., it explains with, "now click on this button...") very useful for people who are not used to where things are in Excel and extremely good for teachers of ICT A-Level who wish to photocopy items from it and distribute around the class. This is basically how I learnt to use Excel from scratch. After using this book, I gained a B-Grade Project!! Thanks Pat!
AS Level Student Review of Details Applied to AS ICT C. Work May 17, 2002

I recently purchased this book after seeing it on the amazon web site. Hearing that the book was endorsed by an Examiner, and written by one I felt sure that it would assist me to get a high grade in my ICT AS Level Coursework. Although the book contains a full section in which it states everything you need to include in your project to gain a good mark, it lacks severe detail of an only 30 or so pages area. In fact my project took some 60 pages with an additional 50 pages of project printings and visual basic code. Even so my ICT teacher told me that these were essential to gain a good mark in the courswork. Therefore these were included, WHICH IS NOT MENTIONED IN THE BOOK! Why is this? should the book not give you all the necessary areas to work on after all it is called SUCCESSFUL PROJECTS IN ICT? unsuccessful more likely. I am very disapointed in the quality of this book as well. The graphics used are poor and the layout is also difficult to grasp with an incredibly poor index which our teacher commented on. If you want to get anything above a B don't buy this book as you are likely to only get a C or a D with the limited content and points made in the sample project.
