Sociologyy HELPPPP!

i was just wondering i got a C in unit 1 SCLY1 AQA and if i get a A in unit 2 is it possible to get an A overall? If possible, what ums do i roughly need to get in uint 2?

Well, I suggest Re sit it to be on the safe side


for the C - there should be a mark called the UMS Marks, what mark do you have

To get an A at AS is 160/200
Unit 1 - Is out of 80
Unit 2 - Is out of 120

Look at the mark you got, and that will give you a better idea, You can get an A , but i suggest Re Sit the Exam ! C is good for first time! I got an D :frown: - re sat got an A :smile:

Goodluck if you need any more help Post
Hi, I'm doing AS Sociology too.

Sadly I haven't sat any exams yet for Unit 1 or 2... At my School we sit them all in the summer....

So I don't really have any clear indication on how I will do!

To get an A overall you'll need to try and literally do amazing!

I'm having to revise Family and Households, Health and Sociological Methods (Yet to even finish in my school)
ITS CRAZY!

I wish you the best of luck! x

I took the Exam again in Jan A2

7... Ummm

109 is around 65-75/90 So yes its do-able :smile: Try not to worry about the A , Focus on Just unit 2 and get the highest marks on that it will be more helpful if you get highmarks first time round!

You can later resit unit 1 at A2
