I was thinking, based on the pre-release, gender and ethnicity! We haven't studied the pre-release yet in class, although i have looked at it! Where abouts are you in the course? For both exams ?

Hi,
The pre-release suggests that the topic overall will be linked in with working class due to the essay we have to study being on working class fathers. Hence you should revise for the topics that easily link in with this like class,gender and age identities in particular.
