You'll be fine, they should realise after they start marking. I'm sure thousands of people do this.

I forgot to write the question numbers - nothing happens - it'll be obvious which one you're writing about. Just makes it slightly easier for the examiner if you put them but won't make any difference whatsoever.

Hi, this is just about Sociology. I sat my Sociology exam on Thursday and I needed more space on the essay and I wrote 04 at the start but close to the end of the essay I may have wrote 05 instead of 04 and then I was finishing off the research methods question and put 05 at the next page. Do you think they will realise that it was supposed to be 04 and not 05 and therefore mark it according to 04 I'm so worried I spoke to my teacher and he said it is a common mistake can anyone help?? Also I may be overthinking about this

You definitely won't be penalised for putting the wrong number in the margin. If it is clearly part of your previous answer it will be marked appropriately. Some people put no question number in the margin at all! From what I've seen, exam boards always try to be fair to candidates in situations like this.
