6tk Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Hi, I got a question. Do I need to know the key terms and definitions for my Paper 3 essays? I feel that only the main ones are useful for me. What do you guys think, do you have any experience? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
astonky Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Dear 6tk, For Paper 3, as the questions are all essays, you don't need to focus on definitions as much as for Paper 1 and 2. However, a definition of a key term is a great way to introduce an essay, consider for example the following question: “Due to global interactions, there is no longer a global periphery.” Discuss this statement. In that case, you would be expected to know the concepts of globalisation and the core-periphery model. So while a word-for-word knowledge of definitions is not required per-se, I suggest that you focus only on understanding and recalling the definitions given in the syllabus (but you don't need to know them verbatim). All the best, astonky Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
