here's an intro abt Sociology ;)


mmm I took Sociology ..... u need to know the followin abt it ;

1. It's not ALL abt memorizing *first u gotta Understand the syllabus then Memorize the defenitions and impo points  ;) *

2. U need to solve the past papers from June 2004-June 2010 and let a teacher supervise ur work ... cuz it's no use if u do it alone !!

3. the Amazing fact abt sociology is that u get to pick which Qs to answer , rather than having to answerr the whole Question Paper.....

4. it consists of Paper 1 which is abt 2 and a half hrs.... and Paper 2 which is abt 45 minutes i guess .

5.Paper 1 : u need to to solve 3 Qs og ur OWN choice + Q.1 in the Question paper which is compulsory
Paper 2 : u need to solve ONLY 3 Qs of ur OWN choice .

6.It's kinda like an ESSAY kinda subject ;)

Gd Luck ;)

Isma3i ...Sociology madda ta3abatni 2ikteeeeeeeeeeer ..srsly , fa it really needs hard work  ...shidi 7eelik ;)

ICT ..wallahi min kalam GiGi inaha 2alat inu it's easy bas mi7tag guhud ..... mish ultilik do NOT freak out , 5oodi na9eehti O Work Hard O tawakali 3ala Allah ^__^

^DO WHAT THE LADY SAYS.  ::) :P

Sociology is used to explore aspects of social relationships, processes and structures. Students develop an understanding of human societies and of the role of continuity and change in social life. They are encouraged to evaluate critically the effects of various social, economic and political arrangements.

The course promotes an understanding of sociological method and the ability to assess different forms of information and evidence. Teachers in any society can relate the themes of the course to students' own experience by using local case studies and sociological material. Students learn to apply their sociological knowledge and understanding to their own lives and their own participation in society.
