The paper will include a piece of source
material which you will have to read and draw upon to answer questions 1 &
2.

Q 1- Focuses
on explaining the reasons for the use of a specific method or aspect of the research process (the reasons would be Practical , Ethical or Theoretical )

You should spend about 15 minutes on this section and there are 15 marks (10 A01 & 5 A02a)

Q2 –assess a particular aspect of the research strategy, usingmethodological concepts, the context of the research and the wider research
process (a little similar to the pre release at AS).

This Q carries 25 marks and should take
roughly 25 minutes, there are 5 marks for A01, 5 for A02a and 15 for A02b.
