sociology post your doubts here!!

@yeshaa: Yes, you do sort of draw a conclusion. But give a neutral PoV. Do not simply write that you favour the Functionalists view or the Marxist view.


EmCool: HAHA. I forgot to mention that. There's a complete question on that which sometimes does have tricky parts!
As for doing the entire chapters, it really depends on you. If you prepare the 2 chapters well enough and are confident about them, don't waste time doing the others.
I did just 2 chapters for Paper 2; Family and Crime and I was totally dependent on them. But the paper was not that tough. You have ample time to think and write. The questions are just general views of society. However, I would still recommend that you do atleast one extra chapter for each Paper. You never know what the examiners might give you! So, better not to take risk!

Hello Friend...! I am appearing in CIE O Level Sociology this year. I just need your help. I don't know how to attempt 6 and 8 marks question. Please guys help me out.

 

[literarygal]

Are any of you only doing 2 topics(Crime and Family, in my case) for P2? Should I prepare education aswell? And how many theories/sociologists are you guys referencing to in the 8 mark question? Please answer! Thanks

Can you tell that whether we are allowed to exceed the lines given to answer the question in O Levels Sociology? :/

 

[Rony020298]

if u ppl have any doubt or misconception or any queries post here

is there any questions concerning types of families, marriages and functions of family (8marks)

 

[thefifinella]

Can you tell that whether we are allowed to exceed the lines given to answer the question in O Levels Sociology? :/

You should try not to exceed the lines because the examiner has already set more than sufficient space for a quality answer. But if you want to add one or two lines, you can do so. There won't be any penalization.
