I think a few subjects don't get reformed until 2017 but I'm not too sure :smile:

I haven't come across one person who is feeling confident... A bit scary... :eek:

Perhaps the grade boundaries will reflect that though! :tongue:

Are you doing ideologies?

Nah American politics which isn't bad, it's just all the modern examples and stupid Supreme Court cases that are hard to remember :angry:

But the presidential race at the moment helps with examples a lot :laugh:

I think for me last year i just didnt care enough for politics to try but for unit 2 i actually did alright considering it was one days revision lol

I think we can get a very high A for unit 1! Just hope unit 3&4 doesnt let us down

Both believe in key aspects of individualism, freedom and rationalism

Both believe in foundational and formal equality

Both disagrees with equality of outcome

Both believe that human nature is rational yet self serving

Both believe the state is a necessary evil and the mechanistic theory of the state
