So I know it's a little early, but better to be early than late 😜
I'll be taking - Family and households
& education with research methods
Anyone else taking this exam? Also, does anyone reckon the grade boundaries will be higher due to the exam reform. I mean, I'm guessing that schools and colleges will be teaching the new version, leaving previous students to be able to resit. (Thus higher grades as they're already familiar with the content)
Thanks!

why haven't they reformed it? or was it only minor tweaks? because for some subjects like History and English there've been vast changes, they've made the exams much harder...

You can compare the differences between old spec and new spec (I am honestly not going to all of that effort as I'm not doing the new spec
) via the documents here:
OLD: http://filestore.aqa.org.uk/subjects...90-W-SP-14.PDF
NEW: http://filestore.aqa.org.uk/resource...-2015-V1-0.PDF
From a quick look it seems to be largely the same content, but as there is even a new Sociology textbook out I'm guessing there are at least a few significant changes.
