That's what I did. I talked about how gender inequality affects people, but also how things like age, ethnicity and class will also have a significant impact on someone's social identity. I concluded that all these things will combine to cause social inequality.

I'd like to get an A. I think G674 went better than G673. I'm hoping that my marks in G674 will make up for the ones I probably didn't get in the other exam. How about you?

I should think so. As long as you've been working hard this year, you should be able to. You'd probably need a high B or an A (depending on how good your C was). How do you think you've done?

Yes. Sounds good n both fronts. After discussing feminism, dual systems & preference theory, you could really go to town and talk about class, ethnicity and age with Marxism, Weberianism and labelling theory. And then discuss post-modernism to conclude.

But so long as you recognised that some theorists believe that other forms of stratification are more important than gender, you should be fine.

Do not worry... The exams are done, just wait for results.

I'm sure both your answer and your mark will be better than you think it will be.

Enjoy this lengthy summer holiday! And reflect on the last two years. How hard you've worked, and how much you'll reap the rewards.

Get yourself on holiday! Somewhere sunny.

What were the other set of questions for this paper? Seems like one set was on gender, what were the others?

I always find it difficult to answer the second part to a question for instance a question like, Outline the evidence that some ethnic minorities are disadvantaged in the contemp uk, i would have no problem answering.

However a question like this --> Outline and assess the contributions sociologists have made to explain ethnic inequality i wouldn't be able to answer at all.

What sort of things would I have to include?
