I am sitting sociology Unit 1 tomorrow and even though I have revised I feel like I haven't done enough :s-smilie:

Anyway I believe everything will turn out alright.
Good luck for tomorrow, everyone!

Who needs help/has no idea what they're doing with the methods in context question? I'm happy to explain it, and I have a practice question which got 19/20 marks to use as a model. :smile:

You don't have to structure the 20 markers like the essay questions, you just have to list points. You have 3 levels of points you make - you get L1 for a general strength or weakness of the research method; L2 for a strength or weakness linked to education; L3 for a specific link to the group being researched. For the most marks you want as many L3s as possible, but a couple of L2s are fine. In short, you have to link the research method to education and the situation in question. Hope this helps!

Idk haven't really looked over methods in context in a few days I hate it so much I don't get how to structure it any ideas?

Usually do 3 strengths and limitations. I find there is never enough to write though.. I use PERVERT to try and remember everything though- Practical issues, ethical issues etc.

Yeah I use that acronym for pure methods! I just don't understand how we apply it to the issue!
