So I am looking for the structure of the exam and can't find any good help googling.
I know I will have paper 1 and paper 2, and will be doing Unit 1 and Unit 2. However when looking at previous exam papers from AQA, it shows I will do 2 sets of a 5marker, 10marker, and 25marker, but no 40 marker. I did 40 markers in class and just cannot find where these will fit in??!?!?
Also, I would like a complete list of all topics in unit 1 and unit 2. I know the ''general'' headings like people, politics and participation, but cannot find anywhere where it clearly says something like ''Unit 1 is made of 4 topics, xxx, xxx, xxx, and xxx''. The reason why is I am not great at gov and pol and would like to focus on my 2 strongest units instead of doing 4 poorly. I am aware this is like playing Russian roulette if the question on my dedicated units are bad, but I would like to take the risk!
Thanks guys! And I hope you are all studying hard this holiday.

As far as I'm aware the 8 topics are...
UNIT 1: Voting Behaviour, Electoral Systems, Parties and Pressure Groups
UNIT 2: Constitution, Parliament, Executive and Multi-Level Governance.
We didn't do 40 markers in class or in the exam, and I don't understand where you've gotten that idea from as they're not present in the exam.
I focused on two topics (but this was mostly due to the fact I missed the two topics when they were being taught) - revising these in depth got me an A in the exam.
