It is difficult to score in this section if you do not spend time on each of the topics, as the questions are not distributed in any specific pattern as in the other sections.
The individual topics and planning tips are listed below:
Hardware:
Computer terminology and facilities, such as ports, buses, RAM, ROM, and hard discs, should be understood. You should be familiar with the various generations of computers as well as the names of the inventors.
