Summary
GPS Unit 3C - American Politics
Notes for the whole of paper 3 for American Politics including Elections, Political Parties, Racial and Ethnic Policies and Pressure Groups. GUARANTEED THIS IS ALL THE THEORY YOU NEED FOR THE EXAM. I am an A* politics student and this gets me consistently 90 % in all practice papers (though after February 2016 some examples may be outdated in favour of more recent ones, all theory however, is still relevant) [UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2017:] I got A* at A-Level with 100% in Unit 3.
