SOCIOLOGY. HELP! .-.

[Dark Destination]

Do you attempt them all ? What marks do you usually get.

I haven't attempted one yet.
But i just skimmed through the oct-nov 2013 paper, and i was like ''What the hell is this''.. weird questions ._.
Pluralists. Interactionist. Positivist. I didn't find this anywhere in my book. >.<

And then i saw a question about SUBCULTURES in paper 1. Idk that :/ Since that's paper 2, they added it in paper 1..

Just hope tomorrows paper is really really easy, or i'm doomed.

I was wondering what Functionalist and stuff was. This is what it is. It's the same thing. :O

I opened the past papers, they're too hard :/ The latest ones. ._.

They SEEM hard. Idk why they've started making new Qs :| I mean we were perfectly happy with repetition :|
But they just change the wording of the Qs very cleverly. Also, Grade thresholds are pretty low from what I've heard.

Subcultures are part of Culture and Socialisation. That's xactly why you should read the syllabus.

Okay But they're not in the Ken Browne book, chapter 1. .-. That's Culture and Socialization, i think.

I have Sociology paper 1 on Monday. And i haven't studied.
Got a U in mocks, because i didn't give one of the papers, i skipped it because i hadn't studied.

Can anyone tell me how to prepare Sociology in one day?
Everyone is going to think it's impossible, but just me a short cut or something.
Which chapters should i skip?

And, I have that Ken Browne book. It doesn't cover all the definitions, and stuff.. in the syllabus.
Which book should i use? :/

And how to get 8/8 in those lengthy questions?

U gave Sociolgy TOOOOOOOOOOOO?? How did this and Phy went?

lol you gotta check this out. This answer got 4 marks out of 6. I mean SERIOUSLY? :|


''The factors on growth subcultures are that society is too stereotypical. For instance say everyone has
too commonly put on their hair back, you decide to make your hair sort of like poccupin/crazy/spiky.
Everyone start calling you a tomboy and so on. You decide screw these stereotypicals im going to hung
out with the drug addits or rocker, whatever the case, these people accept you for who you are.
Also the society is coming up with some absurd (rules or laws) ways of social control. For instance in
Kenya some minister foolishly stated that all trouser should be banned for women, and that the only
attire we should wear is African in this case skirts. Women held a protest until the minister had no
choice but to apoligise for his rude comment''
