Question types
Religion, citizenship, economics, history, and geography
  • Each domain has 10 items. A balanced paper means you cannot rely on favourite history or economics topics to compensate for a weak domain.
  • For history and citizenship sources, identify author, period, audience, purpose, and context before choosing an interpretation.
  • Check axes, units, direction of shift, price/quantity effects, and whether the question asks short-run or long-run impact.

Common mistakes

  • Balanced preparation

    Overstudying one domain while ignoring another equal 10-item domain.

    How to avoid: Allocate revision blocks equally, then adjust only after diagnostic scores.

  • Economics

    Confusing demand movement with demand-curve shift.

    How to avoid: Check whether price changes or a non-price factor changes.

  • History

    Memorising dates without cause and consequence.

    How to avoid: Attach each event to one cause, one effect, and one source clue.

Analysis is paraphrased for study purposes. Always verify against the official examiner report and mark scheme.
