    How does the A* actually work out? Don't you have to get 80% on the AS paper and 90% on the A2 paper?
    I'm not sure but I think it's different depending on how well the whole country has done. You need 320 UMS out of 400 to get an A overall

    Surely we won't get asked a 20 marker on social facilitation?! Does anyone think strength will come up as the 20 for physiology?

    I agree about the football question on Australia it is quite popular as a small marker so it could be a 20 marker.

    Is government policy all about the ASC?

    Thanks
    What questions do u reckon that they could ask for Usa?? as all the comparative questions cant soley be asked based on Aus and uk

    I'm thinking aus association football, and government policy, plus values hasn't been on in a while. But not sure overall.... Xx
    can you explain what your referring to when you say values? as in social values is that for aus or usa? also government policy on sport?

    I think strategies to increase mass participation like Title IX, midnight leagues and little leagues etc.
    Popularity of American football is a possibility but maybe I'm just hoping

    Describe the effects of the crowd on performance and describe how you could prevent negative effects of this

    It's a possibility and most things in Psychology are usually linked anyway so they could join it to another topic

    To get an a* you need roughly 84/105 on the A2 paper, and I think an overall A with that on everything combined

    This exam should be fun!
    My predictions:
    20 marker on body comp
    Short answer q's - flexibility and ergogenic aids
    20 marker on military drill
    Short answer q's - stage two on the reform and pop rec cricket or football
    20 marker on social facil and inhibition
    Short answer q's - attitudes And personalities

    Of course there are more but my revision have been based mainly on these and I'm also highly anticipating a Q on energy systems!

    how would the question on body comp and flexibility be phrased?

    I'm so Hoping your wrong or this is going to be a horrible paper! I hate body comp and don't think I could come up with enough for social facilitation and inhibition! Hoping it's on group cohesion and making a training programme and military drill stuff was the 20marker in january so doubt it'll make an appearance again. Also swimming has come up twice so doubt it'll be on that

    Good point about military drill being used already - I've just got a horrible hunch and I think a training programme will be brought up for flexibility ! I don't think swimming will come up! Either football or cricket for pop rec! However I've got a gut feeling for everything else, which could be rather daunting
    Good luck to everyone xx
