    Anyone sitting this exam tomorrow at 1pm?

    Would like a general idea on what the exam is on and any tips on how to do well in general studies will be much appreciated thanks

    Mainly exam technique would be helpful, ie how to structure my paragraphs and how many paragraphs should i do for the 25 markers etc?

    Yeah doing this too, kind of worried. Just been reading loads of broadsheet articles and old past papers/mark schemes to try and remember lots of current info as that what seems to crop up in these exams.

    I got an A in both papers, literally walked in and wrote without any revision. You don't need to revise for general studies, you just need to have a good argument.
