Oh how did it go? I've got my AS sociology exam (AQA) tommorow, and the specification changed last year, so alot of the past papers aren't relevant.

It went really well i think apart from the fact that my handwriting ended up so bad i don't think the examiner will be able to read it. For GCSE most of the questions i predicted came up exactly, because of the pattern of past papers.
I suppose it's a disadvantage to people studying the new spec especially for a level. I'm taking sociology next year how is it?

Oh yeah, that's the same with my writing especially in Law exams where its time consuming-my writing just ends up being ineligible. At the start of the year, I found sociology really difficult and the amount of content to learn threw me off a bit, but once you do further reading and write your notes out in a way you understand them, its not too bad. Also, so many studies and Evaluation points to remember.

The exam was alright. I just hope I managed to answer the questions properly.
