Section A: Core studies

• There are questions based on the core studies individually, in their pairs and in terms of their key theme.
• Detail, precision and concision is really important in this section.

Section B: Areas, perspectives and debates

• The longer 15 mark question will be in this section
• 'To what extent' questions require you to come to a balanced judgement (e.g. somewhat, greater extent)
• 'Change our understanding' questions need you to make a judgement, to refer to the classic (old) study as well as the contemporary (new) study.

Section C: Practical applications

• This is where you have to apply your knowledge to a novel source
• Strategy questions want you to give lots of detail on HOW you are going to manage / change the behaviour
• Evaluation of your strategy can include points on cost, time, practicality as well as ethics and debates.
