Sociology A-level?

What does the course consist of and is it difficult?

There's several different units and it will depend on your school which ones you do - I do education, family and research methods. I find it really interesting, there's a lot to remember but it's not too bad! The exam consists of long essay questions, so i recommend you only take the subject if you don't mind essay writing :smile:

AQA is a great course. I'm doing a resit year and took it up. It's a lot of content but once you get your head around it it's easy! Also very interesting, I think it's massively changed the way that I see the world in terms of Feminism and Marxism.

Hey, I just did the AS exam on it. I thought it was a very interesting subject. I did Wealth & Poverty, it definitely makes you think about the world in a more open way.

A lot to learn, but I dont think as much as some subjects. You will need to be good at essay writing though. 2 hours of it in the unit 2 exam.

And being able to remember dates and sociologists names is highly recommended :smile:
