    SCLY2 Sociology exam education! Forgot to write conclusions on the 20 marks questions
    Hello,

    I recently re-sat the education/research methods paper in sociology. I can't re-sit again because I'll be leaving. I need at least a B!

    But I didn't write conclusions on all 3 of the 20mark questions!

    Are my chances of getting a B completely out the window?

    I looked at the mark scheme, the higher grade boundaries it suggests a distinct conclusion, but my work was conclusive in itself, I didn't write a conclusive paragraph though. I'm very worried, I just need to know!

    I HIGHLY doubt that not writing a conclusion would have much of an impact. For my exams I spent literally the last couple of minutes writing a couple of open ended conclusions that were a couple of lines long. On the other hand, what do I know? No need to thank me for not being of any help whatsoever.
