Common mistakes students make

  • Mixing boards — Cambridge IGCSE (0495) is not interchangeable with another Sociology programme.
  • Describing when asked to explain — features without a mechanism score the lower tariff only.
  • Vague definitions that do not use specification language.
  • Skipping the neighbouring subtopic in Social Stratification And Inequality, so the paper feels like isolated facts.
  • Never testing retrieval — notes feel fluent until the free How Has Globalisation Affected Inequalities Between Societies? quiz shows the gap.
