    The main part is the reflections, write EVERYTHING you did, how you thought about it, how you could have improved it, what was good, etc. Should make the questions a cakewalk as you'll pretty much just need to look at it and copy off it.

    Anyone have an idea of what's likely to come up?

    Section A is discussions and talks and stuff. Section B is drafts of things like questionnaires and presentations, and C is the actual doing of these things, such as administering and analysing questionnaire results and performing presentations. Don't forget to write percentages and stuff in reflection for C.

    Mine told me the Levinson enquiry was likely to come up, in light of the phone hacking and News of the World stuff. So media influences etc. And the EU thing I considered myself too, like impact the EU has on UK life.

    With the referendum question I mentioned the assembly of Wales and Scotland and N.Ireland, whilst also including the AV section.

    But I didn't answer the 25 marker as I didn't have enough time. I haven't realised how slow of a writer I am, it's going to cost me too.

    Thought it was ok, could've been better. Referendum I just said it was pretty representative of the whole population and stuff for +'s and for -'s I just wrote about it costing a lot and voter turnout would be quite low...
    Honestly no idea how I did lol

    Same! I was daydreaming half way through thinking I had all the time in the world lol. I ended up doing half of the last 15 marker and half of the 25 marker.
