Well, re. the Methods paper, I had to laugh because about 5 minutes before we all started the exam, a couple of my friends had asked me to define "validity", and it was the first question on the paper so I couldn't help myself.

The AS method resit I did in May had exactly the same question for 2 marks

You remember which questions you chose?

The ones on Conflict theories and religion as a Conservative force.
Sociol policy and Postmodernism

When you say "social policy and postmodernism

", is that as in "eh what the fuck?" or "you could have linked those 2 together..."?

We may be doing slightly different modules or something, I dunno, but considering the papers sounds the same...

Its the "what the fuck, no chance i'm doing them". Sociol action was the Methods, and Religion was the Postmodern question.

Ahhhh...yeah, I remember the Social Policy one being on the Methods paper, but I don't remember a Postmodern question on the religion one..., although I remember talking about Anthony Giddens and Late Modernity somewhere on that paper - and I'm glad (I'm assuming) that I wasn't alone in thinking "to hell with social policy" lol!

everyone in my class did the conflict theories one, possible with 95% of the A2 sociology population

Ahah, I can understand that - do you even know what it refers to? Another quick question - can you remember what the 40 mark questions were on the Religion paper?

the one i did was something like, "does modern day religion influence sociol action and has moved from being a conservative force". The other was about postmodernism

Social action is the way government policies are influence by sociological research.

Ahhhhhhh...I think I did the same one as you, something like "Assess the view that religion has changed from being a conservative force to being a force for change"? Rattled on for 5 sides or more about Durkheim, Marx, Stuart Hall ("Policing The Crisis") etc...I was mentally knackered by 4pm lol.

EDIT -
