A-Level General Studies

UPDATED 20161027 11:32:27

General Studies is a subject which encompasses all aspects of the world around us. It deals with politics, ethics, literature, language, culture, science, technology and mathematics. Students are therefore required to have a general knowledge of each of these fields and are examined on them accordingly. Whilst it is nearly impossible to predict which topics will appear in the exams, it is important that students are able to analyse information and make balanced arguments. Generally students who have strong critical thinking skills will score well on the science and maths papers. Those who are able to write well-formed essays will also score well, as essay questions are a main aspect of most General Studies exams.
