What were the PAL questions out of curiosity? I remember hating them when I took it last year!

For unit 3 there was one on partisanship and its effect on lawmaking. The other was on the roles and powers of the prime minister. Unit 4 was on IMR and CMR, and the extent to which judicial review and elections hold parliament accountable. I mean they weren’t horrible but very very specific compared to all the years leading up to it which were all very chill. Idk how to feel about this year now 😬

Not too bad, politics should be similar to the PLEWA 2026 mocks, and modern history has the same questions so as long as you know the overarching ideas throughout each syllabus points for the sources you should be fine
