I went through all the revision/textbook my teacher has given us and have created a table of all the theorists for each section: age,gender,occupation etc
I haven't actually found many theorists and at the most 7 for each section (apart from gender) is that enough? People who are taking the exam how many theorists have/ are going to learn?

Is it true that the question 1 will only be about occupation or gender?

how do you know? the specimen papers include, region, gender and occupation and class isn't mentioned so that could come up as well idk how to predict stuff.
also i'm looking at what to mention to get the highest mark as possible for each topic and this is what i found for level 5 pointers.
Gender - mention heterogeneity how it's not just biological factors but social factors that affect language use for either gender (maybe context could link into it etc also mention the different explanations but people probs already know that) Hyde's gender similarities also social issues that Tannen mentions such as wage gap etc
Occupation - rule breaking such as how a person may respond to their boss with informal address to be playful and to break power roles etc idk if i worded that right (idk if pragmatics is important can someone explain??)
Class - (idk if someone can answer this that'd be great)
Region- code-switching where speakers swap from accents and dialects to suit the situation or whom they are speaking to / dialect levelling (smoothing accents)
