,Exam preparation: CMY1502:Oct/Nov 2022
By now registered students should know that CMY1502 focuses
on the victim and the
reduction of crime, the information is presented in 3 themes.
The exam will consist of 50 MCQs, and the question bank from
which randomised
questions are selected represents all three themes.
When preparing for the exam do not merely skim-read through
the information in the
study guide, you have to base your knowledge on factual
information and not general
knowledge derived from news networks, TV shows, or social media.
When working through the respective themes have a specific crime
victim in mind, that is, a
rape victim, a victim who survived an attempted murder, etc., and
apply the information contained
in the 3 themes to this victim`s criminal event.
I would advise you to search for a news clip on news24 or any other
site that will assist you with
information about a victim of crime.
# remember to consult the glossary appearing on the CMY1502 site
