try and condense your notes as much as possible. most of them time you won’t get chance to recite everything in the exam so have a few key points for each topic.
which topics do you do?

So apparently for the 30 marker globalisation is most likely to come up, I have also heard that policy might make a comeback. What are the predictions for the 20 marker?

if globalisation comes up, surely itd have to be linked to something else. i.e., functions, educational achievement/ policies?

itll come up SOMEWHERE, it always does. just thinking it may be more likely to come up as the 20 marker in paper 3 theory & methods with all the backlash from teachers last year
