i dnt thnk dey are same:
serial: it is where items are read 1 at a timefrom the physical start of the file in the order which dey r stored .
sequential: it is where items are read 1 at a tym from the logical start of file in key value orders.
Yeah but then it does not really matter in IGCSE, like all you need to know are serial and direct ...

When we write the adv and this, could we just like write them as points or do we have to write sentences?  I think that would make if harder if so.

Physical Start- Start from the first file in the folder/location
Logical Start- Start from the first file in order of logic (I.e. going from A-Z. So files with A first, then B, then C and etc..)

It would be better if you can put them in a sentence, but if you are running out of time it is ok to bullet point!

if the question is 8 marks...usually the last question about advantages and disavantages....

if i answered with 10 or 12 points??will they reject it?

like 5 disadvantages and 5 advantages....
Remember that for such question one mark is for conclusion..I read in MS
If you are a man who degrades women then allow me to respectfully remind you that you came from ONE

Actually CIE don't specify it, so Bullet points and sentences are the same (considering you write what the question asks). But Bullet points are faster and you are less likely to make a mistake.
