    “Every element of one sub-section of the population is selected.” This is an example of ‘stratified’ sampling, right? Or, is this an example of ‘cluster’ sampling?

    It is cluster sampling. Stratified sampling does not involve taking every element of a sub-section.

    I suggest that you watch our free lectures on this.

    Our free lectures are a complete course for Paper F2 and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.

    Ohh right! Thank you!

    I am watching the lectures as well as practicing the kit, but this option in one of the questions made me think what it could be. I had to make sure. Once again, thanks a lot! 🙂

    You are welcome (although in future please ask in the Ask the Tutor Forum if you want me to answer – this forum is for students to help each other 🙂 )
