i spend 35 mins on each section but doesn’t seem like nearly enough. also i’ve been doing that too, memorise paragraph summaries

how long should mental health take? i struggle with timing on paper 3 :frown:

What is the structure of the 10 mark questions? Is it outlining the study for 5 marks and then relating it to the question for the other 5?

I think you should do section b first before mental health, because mental health is time consuming and you want to get the 10 and 15 markers out of the way first

Do you guys think they are likely to repeat studies for section B from last year, cause that would just be unncessary and mean.

I wouldn't be surprised, I feel like they are unlikely but then again they did that with Chi-Square in research methods hahah

I feel like the chi-squared was just an after thought and it doesn't hold as much marks as a whole section b question. If they do repeat that would be wicked
