I'm up until the exam. Doing Elections and Democracy. If anyone has any questions just ask :smile:

I'm resitting this unit from last year (only got a C due to me misreading a question).
Can someone give me some tips on how to revise? (Democracy and pressure groups in particular) I've left all my revision till last minute and I don't know what to do :/

No it was the elections 25 marker.

Stupid reason, I was rushing and didn't read it in full.

Thought it said to retain the electoral system not "electoral reform". I realized it after the exam when I went on Student Room xD

How many current examples have you memorised? I'm doing the same!


Also resitting.
Does anyone else think that voting behaviour is likely to come up in elections?
I'm so stuck on everything about politics. I'm guessing I'm not having no sleep

Got a B in the other paper (only a day's revision, lol, gamble paid off). My offer is AAA, and I'm currently AAC, so this exam needs to move up a grade or two! :smile:

1 for each point. Such as 4 advantages of FPTP, 1 example for each.

Seriously what is it about this exam that we all get so sleepless about? XD

It's not rocket science yet here we are confused, exhausted and half dead.
