Summary: • link it to real life (read the news) • textbook - take up to date examples (current PM) • listen to ur teacher’s examples • share ur work with friends • write down as many facts/examples as you can • make as flash cards 3 months before your example, go thru that everyday
Hi I am currently in year 12 and taking a level politics so this was really helpful so thank you and I just wanted to ask about the essay structure it’s self as in my teacher has said that I needed a better introduction along with weaving the evidence into my counter argument on the 25 markers and if you have any tips that would be great xxx
as a first year studying politics, it’s not too bad but you definitely have to get the structure down and once you’ve got that down it’s mainly just waffling😭
@@emmanuelae8171 bahhahaha it was the worst subject ever but that was just me! I literally had no interest in it, didn't care about it and left revision too late. if you are genuinely interested/care about politics you will defo be fine :)
Hi Sienna. Im in year 12 and this video has really helped me so thank you! just one question have heard if you add events from the past you will get marked down on. I just want to know if thats true or not!
on the edexcel website it says, ‘Students will be credited for any appropriate examples they use (i.e. there is no time limit on when examples can come from, nor must they necessarily be the most recent, e.g. the latest general election figures). However, it is important to remember that this is a Politics qualification, not a History qualification, and so students' answers must be fixed in the present with contemporary examples, and not over-rely on historical evidence or examples.’ and i think you’re more likely to do better if u use contemporary examples.
