hi, did you make any 15 marker plans from past papers, or plans from past papers for the other unit (conservatism, socialism, liberalism etc.)??

Yes it does, alot actually, hahaha i’d seen the rest of the folder after i’d sent that message, but thank you! How else do you suggest revising other than looking at past paper questions? And do you think its enough to just look at them or should i really be practising the essays? Many thanks!!

id say yeah deffo practice them :smile:

some of the 15 questions can be like reversed so if theyre questions that are for and theres never been a question about against a topic then write down what youd put if a question about against would exist :smile:

time yourself too! so some kahoot quizes and the quizes that are available on here. my teacher made us do a kahoot she'd make for the end of each unit just so it make srevision tolerable and not like you wanna kill yourself haha

Hey guys,
How would you answer this question: "'Conservatism is defined by its support for free market capitalism'. Discuss.(45)" I'm fine with the New Right section lol but was wondering about the Trad Cons. and One Nation sections?
Cheers x

Struggling on this question: "On what grounds have ecologists supported capitalism?"

I've done really good notes for Liberalism, Conservatism, Feminism and Ecologism, nearly finishing Socialism and Nationalism notes.

I've started doing really detailed grid plans for 15 markers for Unit 3 on basically all the past paper questions. Currently, this week I'm going through all unit 4 14 markers and sending my teacher x2 15 markers a day. The more I get through the essay questions the more I can start doing detailed plans and memorising plans.

Checklist I have for 15 markers and 45 markers ( to get the top marks):

•

Key Thinker in every paragraph (A01)

•

Key example in every paragraph (A01)

•

Dates/Facts/Stats/Historical examples (A01)

•

Link A02 to theme (key concept -> theme)

•

Criticism/ difference/ tension within ideology (A02)

•

Critcism/difference/ tension within another ideology (A02)

I'm looking for a politics online revision buddy who i can share my Unit 3 and Unit 4B detailed plans, model answers, my colourful condensed A02 revision notes on each theme in each ideology and someone who I can motivate and give work for and teach ideologies and someone who can do the same for me. Anyone PM me if interested :wink:
