CXC CAPE Sociology: Sociological research methods FAQ

Is Kramizo free for CXC CAPE students preparing for Sociology?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Sociological research methods practice with other Sociology topics or even switch to a totally different CXC CAPE subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Sociological research methods questions aligned to the official CXC CAPE Sociology syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CXC CAPE Sociology specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CXC CAPE paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CXC CAPE.
How is Sociological research methods typically tested on CXC CAPE Sociology papers?
Sociological research methods appears across multiple question types on real CXC CAPE Sociology papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
