Hey lovely, drop me a PM I’ve got essay plans which I think will help you start your politics up, for reference I got an A in October so yeah I can really help guide and advice you x
Oh I think my college will do the global option. Was it really hard though overall? Did u have to revise a lot?
My politics teacher said he chose US because Global was harder, so good luck my guy. It's not necessarily hard as it is boring, to death nearly. And US politics, which I did, is so incredibly dysfunctional. But yeah, I revised every week and stayed more than up to date on current affairs. Mostly though it's by the book kind of memorisation you'll need, and learning the right structure (we used PEACE and PEE) which take time if you haven't done so before.
I can't speak on behalf of ideologies (which you do alongside both years, Liberalism, Conservatism and Socialism, as well as either Feminism, Ecologism and so on) as we only did the first three then stopped as Covid meant we could cut them from out exams.
