Dayuum!

yeh i've been doing psychology too, jus gotta cram this sociology now..
wot im doing is completely ignoring class (unless its a little bit to do with workplace inequalities or poverty) 1. because i don't think it'll come up 2moz, and 2. because its massive!!
its by far the biggest topic to revise for out of class, gender, ethnicity, and poverty, agreed with by teachers.
ive been writing notes on evidence for D questions for each of the topics, but its taken me all day so far! so i think i'll scrap note taking for E questions and just practice writing essays that i can regurgitate in the exam lol.. however paying attention in classes and actually knowing ANYTHING about it would probably have helped me :rolleyes:

wots every1 else doin?

I have no idea really...my teacher gave me so many predictions...does anyone else have any predictions as to what is going to come up or what to mainly focus on?

my teacher said changing class structure and ethnic disadvantage/racism. but everyone else on here seems to be saying gender and NOT class lol so i relly dont know what to revise. probably should have started alot earlier but was worried about psychology.

another person staying up all night here! ugh, I've completely neglected sociology this year and focused way too much on ethics and english, mainly because I need AAA and sociology is my fourth subject... there's no way I'm getting an A in it, so I just kind of decided to concentrate on pulling up my other grades instead :frown:

I really don't get on with my teacher either, who is scarily useless and barely taught us anything, so I pretty much stopped going to lessons after christmas in protest. I completely regret it now though. I don't want to fail this subject completely, especially when I enjoyed it and did quite well in it at AS!

I already think I've failed my crime & deviance paper though. Any tips on how I could possibly salvage this and get a D or a C in this paper? Tips as in, most important things to look at, I mean - do you think there are any less crucial bits that I can just gloss over? I know disturbingly little and am attempting to read the textbook chapter/teach myself the unit in a night. Ridiculous, I know... but any help would be amazing.
