CSEC IT MCQ 2025 60/60 POSSIBLE? 🤷🏽‍♂️

Added: 2026-06-04

[00:00:00]lies.

[00:00:02]All right, let's see what the last multiple choice paper looks like. Um, question number one.

[00:00:15]The most suitable computer system for a research station used to forecast and monitor earthquakes. If you're forecasting and monitor earthquakes, that's a lot of data. So, that's a super computer thing.

[00:00:26]To use a program stored on a flash drive, the program must be transferred to RAM. Ding.

[00:00:33]Because RAM is what happens right before you go into the CPU.

[00:00:40]Number three. If in the following types of interfaces is user required to remember the specific instructions and syntax. Ooh, that is definitely the command driven because you have to know the commands. If you don't know the commands, you are literally cooked cuz you can't do anything on the computer.

[00:00:58]So, ding.

[00:01:02]Number five. Number four.

[00:01:06]Which of the following would not be considered cloud storage? Cloud storage is nothing that's stored on your local computer.

[00:01:13]If it's stored and accessible on a LAN, that's not cloud storage. That's network storage. So, ding.

[00:01:21]Um, I think Yeah, remote servers, internet, and hosting companies. Yeah, right.

[00:01:29]Let's see. Number five.

[00:01:31]Which of the following groups of hardware components best represents the IPO cycle? Input, process, output, storage, mouse, CPU, monitor, hard drive. That's that looks like a to me.

[00:01:49]Um yeah, we haven't reach reached any um fumble questions yet. I'll let you know when we reach the fumble questions because there are some questions that genuinely have two answers but we could discuss when we reach there. Um item six refers to the following diagram. Which of the following function is carried out by Z? Z is storage. So that should be C.

[00:02:12]We've seen this before. We've seen this before.

[00:02:16]Which of the following would not be included in cable transmission media?

[00:02:20]Satellite because we've seen this before. A satellite is wired wireless stuff. It beams it through the air.

[00:02:28]Number eight.

[00:02:32]The order of connecting the hardware components of a LAN starting from the ISP would be the ISP must connect to a modem and then to us a router then to a switch. So it will be a Yeah, I don't think I ever saw this one before. Maybe I saw it already, but I can't remember it. But this is a good question that will test your knowledge. Modem converts it from analog to digital and the router will be able to take it take the digital signals and send it to the switch that will distribute the the stuff to the throughout the network.

[00:03:04]Number nine, the fishing cyber attack is best described as the fishing is um deceptive. So c deceptive emails like you know you trick your granny into clicking the link because they're going to get free groceries or tricking a child into clicking the link because they will get free Robux.

[00:03:26]Yeah. Number 10. Then which of the following protocols is used to ensure that web browsers and servers communicate with each other? In order for them to communicate, you need to use HTTP, hypertext transfer protocol, cuz that's the only way the web the web is going to allow your browser to display information.

[00:03:47]Number 11, we've seen that already. Um, a school is considering upgrade to it computer system. The school hired an individual to assess its current systems and make re recommendations and provide training after the implementation of the system is complete. That is a information technology analyst because you have to analyze stuff and then train them. It can't be a computer support specialist because that's basically a technician. Network analyst and network engineer. Well, what they talking about it has nothing to do with networks. It's just the whole school. So, let's go with that. Ding.

[00:04:25]Number 12. Unauthorized realtime interception or private communication.

[00:04:29]Um, right. So, it's real time interception. So, that's electronic e dropping. Yeah. Hey, we've seen that already.

[00:04:40]There's electronic eaves dropping and um I can't remember the other one, but yeah.

[00:04:48]Number 13, double entry data verification involves um different data being entered once by two different persons.

[00:05:00]No, the same data being entered once and then re-entered by another person. Yeah, that would be D.

[00:05:07]Can't remember that one being so tricky, but um we saw it. We probably saw it in other papers.

[00:05:18]14. An autonomous driving system needs to access records for the distribution so sorry for the destination of a client. Which of the following file access methods will be best for doing so?

[00:05:31]Autonomous driving system.

[00:05:35]Oh, that's this new. I don't I don't think I ever saw this question before.

[00:05:40]Hey, new question alert. New question alert. Ding ding ding.

[00:05:51]because autonomous driving system needs to get things really fast. We'll call it direct.

[00:06:01]Um, which of the following devices can be you? Direct is the fastest and like most technological one. Serial, random, and sequential. They all have like speed issues. Because it's an autonomous driving system, you'll probably want it to go really fast.

[00:06:18]Which of the following devices can be used for both input and output?

[00:06:24]Uh, a touchcreen cuz you could touch the screen and you could also read from the screen. Tada. Uh, number 16.

[00:06:33]The classic shoes.com question. This has been around since 2008.

[00:06:39]2008 like oh gosh shoes.com is the domain you know really not that hard to come up with new questions every single year now you know like really not that hard but why don't they which of the following statements about biometric systems is false um Yeah, this is a fumble question because people argue for the about this question for years like years and years and years and years and years. Um, but definitely the personal data that's captured is not very is not very intrusive. So C that's false because it's just a fingerprint or it not very intrusive. Intrusive data would be like I don't know your middle name or your your wildest dreams or whatever.

[00:07:36]Which of the following types of technologies is commonly used by banks to read data unchecked? That's MICR, which is the magnetic ink character recognition.

[00:07:47]Transferring data from a remote computer to a personal computer is referred to as remote computer to your personal computer. That's downloading. We've seen this already.

[00:07:58]Been here before.

[00:08:02]We know the We know the tricks.

[00:08:05]Before purchasing our computer, James was given a sheet with the following hardware specifications. Thank you very much. The CPU speed is 3.6 GHz. That is correct.

[00:08:19]And um telecommunications can be best described as something Telecom meeting sorry telecom meeting is working from home so working from home by connecting home office yeah that would be B 20 do 22 which part of the central processing unit coordinates activities the coordinator on the CPU is the control unit because it's the basic ally the boss of where the ones and zeros go to. If the ones and zeros want to go anywhere, the control unit has to say yes or no.

[00:09:10]All right, that's 22. Let's go now. 23.

[00:09:14]The illegal copying and selling of computer programs is called software piracy. That's why you have SIMs installed right now.

[00:09:23]Um, which of the following is a hardware user interface?

[00:09:31]Hardware user interface means you physically have to make contact with the to use the interface. So that's D 25.

[00:09:43]Which of the following functions is performed by a modem? Modem modulus analog and digital signals.

[00:09:56]Yeah, modulates is the key word there.

[00:09:59]25 with BB 26.

[00:10:04]Um, they do have any new questions here again. Which of the following provides proof that the extensive use of ICT has had a positive impact on the field of business?

[00:10:16]All of them. Yeah.

[00:10:19]26 is D.

[00:10:23]27 is um which of the following is true about an internet?

[00:10:34]Um only employees will have access to internet because it's internal. Extranet will give like people on the outside a little BL but internet. No bueno.

[00:10:54]Um allows access to suppliers. Did I put B? I put B.

[00:11:00]An official of company X tells confidential information about his company to company Y. Cool. What is the term used for this type of information misuse?

[00:11:12]Industrial espionage. Because that's a spy. spy versus spy and we're treading along.

[00:11:20]A program that analyzes data and uses rules on previous information to deliver possible decisions is called H expert system. Expert system on the syllabus. That's so weird. I don't even know if expert system is on the syllabus.

[00:11:45]Yeah, all the expert system. But I did not know that you could teach a expert system in CC it. I have to double check the syllabus and see that. But maybe I read it wrong. Maybe.

[00:11:58]Which of the following is used for executing HTML code? A browser because a browser is just a reader of code and converts that code into something for you.

[00:12:11]Number 31. Which of the following are not categorized as system software?

[00:12:18]Um the operating system is not a yeah operating system general purpose software that's application software. So a yeah think I've seen that before. I think I've seen everything before.

[00:12:36]When John tried to submit the application for his book allowance, he received an error message from his phone was incomplete from foundation.

[00:12:44]Um, if it was incomplete, that means there's a present check because there was nothing present.

[00:12:51]Well, something wasn't present. What was it that wasn't present? We don't know.

[00:12:57]Which of the following is true of accessing files sequentially?

[00:13:03]You got to start with the first record.

[00:13:05]For sure though. For sure.

[00:13:09]Are there any new questions?

[00:13:13]The part of our private network that uses internet technology and public telecommunications that can be accessed by businesses, suppliers, vendors, customers or partners is called a extranet because it's given extra access.

[00:13:32]Number 35.

[00:13:37]Which of the following are impacts of e-commerce on traditional businesses?

[00:13:43]Traditional businesses increase traffic to physical stores.

[00:13:47]Well, e-commerce not going really get traffic to your physical store. But um so yeah, it be two and three. What's two and three? C C it is 36.

[00:14:04]Which of the following is a page formatting feature used in WordPressing documents?

[00:14:14]Page formatting. There's a difference between page formatting and text formatting. So borders is page formatting.

[00:14:20]Um yeah, three C's in a row. That usually looks very fishy, but if number 37 is C, then you should check over.

[00:14:30]Which of the following table editing features apply to the shaded cells in the form?

[00:14:39]Split. Ooh, this is a new question. I've never seen this one before. Must be nice. Yes, split is the answer because it split that that particular cell into three parts for 12, June, and 2026.

[00:14:54]Good for them. Good for them.

[00:15:01]What is the function of the small square label x? I think I've seen this before.

[00:15:07]This is going to copy the contents to other cells. That's the best answer you see, but it actually replicates another formula. But fill handle is the actual word autofill.

[00:15:22]Hey, that's the best answer that we could get there.

[00:15:26]Number 39.

[00:15:30]Whoa.

[00:15:33]The manager wants to find the names of the businesses whose orders are not outstanding. Which fields will be used in the query?

[00:15:41]The businesses. The names of the businesses will be supplier and um received.

[00:15:51]Yeah, supplier and received. That'll be a That is a new question, kids. Um, never seen that one in my life.

[00:16:02]Um, yeah.

[00:16:07]Number 40.

[00:16:10]Two fields that can be selected as part of a calculation.

[00:16:17]If you want to calculate something, you could calculate the amount owed and the date ordered. Anything that has numbers could be calculated.

[00:16:27]So, amount owed and date ordered. This is also a new question.

[00:16:34]But here we are cooking this paper cuz the new question is kind of straightforward. Unless you don't know what databases how how databases work.

[00:16:45]databases. Sometimes people don't know how they work, but you you smart. You smart.

[00:16:52]Following formula is located in position B6 of a spreadsheet.

[00:16:56]If the formula is copied Oh, we've seen this already. We've seen this already. I probably explained this a few times.

[00:17:04]I think I explained this in a video last year. Yeah.

[00:17:10]So if it copy from from this position to the position located immediately on the left, the B3 is going to change to A3 for sure because it's going to the left cuz it it's going to be B then A on the next side. So A3 the B4 will change to A4 and any B dollar sign five is going to stay the same stay the same.

[00:17:47]Yeah. So the answer will be C.

[00:17:52]This is definitely a humble question, but let me just double check that before I move on. If you copy the formula to the cell on the left, that means it's going horizontally, not vertically. So, only the columns will change cuz the the rows will stay the same.

[00:18:10]B3 will change to A3.

[00:18:15]B4 will change to A4.

[00:18:19]And B5 will say okay. Yeah, see the answer. There's no other answer that even comes close.

[00:18:29]42.

[00:18:31]Um, the database above shows record sorted by what? Ah, okay. HHF. Nope.

[00:18:38]Wait, that could be item number in descending order. Could be.

[00:18:48]All right. A is a a is a possibility.

[00:18:50]Hammer Hammer FH FFF.

[00:18:55]It could be item description in descending order, but that's not one of the options. And quantity. Quantity definitely not sorted. Quantity just is weird right now.

[00:19:35]Yes, we're good. Item number in the sending order. This is a new question.

[00:19:39]I've never seen this before.

[00:19:42]Good on you.

[00:19:45]I mean there's a high level of common sense. So number 43.

[00:20:09]If the data in cell E4 is changed, this would most likely affect what? Okay. You could change the data in E4.

[00:20:17]E4 is N Hannah Nance.

[00:20:24]That's this spot right here.

[00:20:26]The total mark will change. That is correct. So G4 will change here.

[00:20:33]Okay. G4 C is the answer.

[00:20:39]Number 44.

[00:20:46]As a database administrator, you are asked to design a database password.

[00:20:50]What data type is most suitable for storing the number of patients per ward?

[00:20:54]The number of patients per ward should be an integer.

[00:20:58]Now, the reason it should be an integer is because you can't have a decimal for number of patients.

[00:21:06]Have like two and a half patients.

[00:21:07]That's That's weird.

[00:21:11]That's like a short person. You don't really want to do that.

[00:21:16]Number 45.

[00:21:23]45 is saying to us that I've seen this before. Did I? I don't know. The criteria that must be used in a database query to select all appliances manufactured by Samsung cost more than 3,000 is manufacturer Samsung and price greater than 3,000 that should be D unless I read it too fast which tends to happen with students and myself also because I'm a chronic fast reader the criteria that must be used in a database to select all appliances manufactured by Samsung manufacturer equals Samsung here that cost more than 3,000 is and price greater than 3,000 Okay, cool. Yeah.

[00:22:09]46.

[00:22:17]A hyperlink which allows students to send a message to the principal is placed on the homepage of a school's website. The hyperlink placed on the homepage is most likely a link to what?

[00:22:31]Our email address. That would make the most sense in life.

[00:22:37]Can I remember correcting that before?

[00:22:40]Maybe I did.

[00:22:42]A field was added to a database table but is no longer relevant. This field can remove from a table by opening the design view and then deleting the field cuz see that makes sense. Number 48.

[00:23:02]Which of the following content controls would be useful in creating a fillable electronic form for use online?

[00:23:09]All of them D 49.

[00:23:21]Which of the following steps is required in order to center text across a range of cells?

[00:23:28]Select the text across the cells. Then merge and center. Select the text. Send select and center the text and merge cell.

[00:23:37]All right. This question is unfair because what if you're using Google Docs dog? What if you're using Google Docs?

[00:23:44]If you're using Google Docs, then it there's no such thing as merge and center in Google Docs. There's merge and then you have to center it afterward.

[00:23:51]I guess merge and center is what they are looking for.

[00:23:56]In number 50, in a sales database, you would like to calculate the total cost of each product. So they wanted to know if you could do a calculated query. This is a fumble question because people would be like what is a calculated query.

[00:24:13]Calculated queries are what you would do in the when you do the query.

[00:24:19]So you're going to have to multiply the unit price by quantity. But it must be in square brackets. If it's not in square brackets, then no problem.

[00:24:29]But it's it's kind of straightforward because you literally see the multiplication sign right there. So why would you put addition if they say by multiplying and then you choose addition? That would be so weird.

[00:24:45]Now 51 refers to the following algorithm. Read A and B. If A is less than B then in performing this algorithm the computer reads two numbers and prints the smaller number.

[00:24:57]We've been here before.

[00:25:00]Travel this road sometime.

[00:25:03]50 dose. What does the symbol diamond represent in information? The diamond represents a decision.

[00:25:20]Um, All right, correction on number 51 because it didn't have a else. It just had if then didn't have else. So yeah, it prints the first number if it is smaller than the second number. That's all. It has nothing to do with the smaller number cuz if it was just a smaller number, it would have printed a else print b. But it didn't do that. So noted what I tell you I didn't read the question properly. I'm just like you in many ways.

[00:26:37]What does the symbol layer represent?

[00:26:39]That is a decision and 53.

[00:26:47]When implementing a program, which of the following steps comes after executing? After you execute maintaining will be the only answer there that makes sense. There's no there's no other answer besides 54.

[00:27:15]Which of the following programming languages is not considered to be high level?

[00:27:20]Assembly is not high level because it's low level. That's all that's all I have to say.

[00:27:27]There are different levels of programming languages. But I kind of went through this already in detail with something else. Now 55 refers to the poling algorithm take information taken from algorithm. If x is greater than or equal to 10 then print x is a positive number greater than or equal to 10. Else if x is greater than zero then print x is a positive number less than 10. Else print x is not a positive number.

[00:27:56]Oh going to have to thinking is going to have to take place and my dog knows it.

[00:28:07]The value of x is nine. Okay. So let's track it through. If 9 is greater than or equal to 10. No, it's not. Else if it's greater than zero, then print X is a positive number less than 10.

[00:28:21]Oh, okay. X is a positive number, not less than 10. No, a positive number less than 10. X is a positive number. The answer is B. That was easy. Hold on. It can't be so simple. Actually, it is that simple. Yeah. Oh, better. Hold on.

[00:28:39]9 9 greater than or equal to 10? No, it's not. So then else if is 9 greater than zero? Yes, it is.

[00:28:53]Um and then you have a else that yes and yes to so but x is nine. So it's going to print x.

[00:29:07]it will substitute the value in. So it should be C. Yeah, cuz the nine the nine will take the place of the X because of substitution.

[00:29:17]It wouldn't actually print out the X because X is not in the quotes. If it's in the quotation marks, then it would have print the letter X. But X is a variable. So C um yeah, pay attention to that. That's a that fumble question for sure. Which of the found best describes debugging?

[00:29:38]Debugging is identifying errors in the code. Identifying and fixing errors in the code. So that's D 57.

[00:29:55]A computer programmer is coding an algorithm which calculates the C class average. Cross average should be real because it's going to be a decimal 58.

[00:30:13]Claude was asked oh big up you claude to accept three numbers from the user and find and display their average start read N1 N2 N3 and average is equal to M1 / 3 that should be D. I concur and 59.

[00:30:45]What component of a problem typically uses the term print to carry out an instruction?

[00:30:50]That would be output B. And number six, well, would you look at that? A whole loop just for us and a trace table too. Well, this is how you end off a multiple choice. They're too wicked. They too wicked.

[00:31:13]Like you don't finish your multiple choice telling yourself, "All right, time to get out of here." And then you have to read through this whole thing.

[00:31:21]Let's read through it. Start sum is equal to 0. J is equal to 14. J is equal to 5. do. Okay. J is equal 1 to 5. Sum is equal to sum plus J. All right. Cool.

[00:31:31]So, we're getting we start at J= 1. Why line one have nothing in it?

[00:31:43]Anyhow, line one doesn't have anything.

[00:31:46]Line two is just to set the sum to zero.

[00:31:50]Line three is to set J to one.

[00:31:56]and line four line four to six which is the loop which is going to happen five times for J is 1 to 5 sum is equal to sum plus J okay so 1 + 1 it's going to be two then 1 1 + 1 no 1 + 0 because the sum is your energy is 1.

[00:32:42]Yeah, 1 plus 0 will be 1. Okay, I see it. 1 plus 0 gives you 1.

[00:32:56]What are they really trying to do me here by?

[00:32:59]Do I really have to draw this thing out?

[00:33:01]Yeah, I have to draw it out. I trying to do it in my head and that's not wise.

[00:33:05]You should actually draw it out.

[00:33:08]So, let's go through it line by line. J is equal to one. That is correct. Or J is equal 1 to 5. Do because J starts at one. 1 + the current sum which is 0 is 1. So 0 + 1 is 1, right? And then 1 + 2 is 3. Then 3 + 3 is 6. 6 + 4 is 10. And then 10 + 5 is 15. So 10 is the answer.

[00:33:32]D. And now you look at the clock and ask yourself, should I leave now or should I check over? And my advice to you is leave now because this multiple choice was cake. Even though I made a mistake, but that's because I was speedr running it. Maybe you should check over. All right, take my advice. Check over.

[00:34:00]Actually, no. Checking over all 60.

[00:34:02]That's wild. But yeah, check over all 60 just to make sure because 60 out of 60 is possible and you should get it. That is all.

[00:34:12]Bye.
