AQA AS GOVP1 Question Predictions?

Really? :/ completely missed it out?

Uhh, I think the questions were nice and I loved the political parties questions but only managed to answer the intro of the final 25 marker as I ran out of time

Does anybody know what the max amount of marks you can get for an intro.

The question was about how members of the Conservative Party and the Labour Party have little or no say in the process of organisation or policies of the parties. My points were there is binding powers of a 2/3 vote at the Labour Conference which allows people to vote on policy, how this doesn't occur in the Conservative Party as MPs are voted to use their judgment and the Conference is advisory debate. I also wrote about who the Conservative Prime Minister has the power to write the manifesto entirely himself and how local Conservative groups have fought to keep the power to elect their candidates so there is some power in the organisation.

Although there is not ACTUAL THOROUGH analysis here, I felt that I kind of explained it a little bit in the intro itself.

How'd you guys find it and what topics did you do? I did voting behaviour + pressure groups.
The voting behaviour questions were kind of annoying.. But overall it was okay

Yeah it said it was the only way to measure political participation so obviously it wanted you to refute that and give other ways of measuring?

I literally wrote 2 sentences and ran out of time

I'm really sorry but that will gain you very few marks.

It's so annoying because it was such a nice question Thanks though

For that I wrote there were others ways like pressure groups ect but that there was a decline in voting which questions the governments strength and legitimacy,

For the first question turnout out I said it refers to the amount of the electorate that vote, talked about a decline from 1950s however there has been an increase since 2001, brings forth legitimacy ect

For the 25 for election a practically answered the question if it said proportional system but changed that for AMS

Damn. For the 5 marker I was about to talk about the decline in partipation but I used that in my 25 to talk about why voting in elections is not the best way to measure partipation.

What even are the other forms?? I put petitions...PETITIONS...and debates.... I also put party membership and interest group involvement ???

You could still be right, I really need to make up my marks in the unit 2 and the A2

does any one remember the exact wording of the 25 marker for participation and voting behaviour please?

Anyone else think that the electoral system one was a really nice 25 marker?

For participation I distinguished between formal and informal, talked about falling party membership in one paragraph, voting in another and also did online participation through social media, online campaigns and e-petitions.
