Why not use a high level language like C or BASIC to program the microcontrollers?
Whilst this is possible, it was deemed to give an unfair advantage to those candidates who may have met one of these languages in a Computing course. Also, it is to discourage long winded and lengthy programs which candidates may use for the coursework module. In addition, industry would prefer that candidates have experience of some form of Assembler language rather than high level languages for the programming of microcontrollers.
