Yeah, you're right. Unit 2 is really research-focused, and the exam question tends to be rather vague. This means you can really write it the way
you want to, and can basically blag yourself an A.
I sat option C: a study of ethics in June and was given this question:
"Examine and comment on the view that developments in medical ethics should be
guided by religious principles, with reference to the topic you have investigated."So what I did was research one ethical issue (organ transplants) and then analyse the many different ethical dilemmas within organ transplant with references to the reilgious principles.
The religious principles being:
•
Rights and responsibilities
And then I went through all the dilemmas within organ transplantation (distribution of organs, taking organs from people in comas, taking organs from animals, paying for organs etc), and wrote about how each of the religious principles applies to each dilemma.
We didn't get given any books for it, so we just researched on the internet. For the exam, make sure you have a very clear structure and ALWAYS link back to the question. Summaries, quotes, leave spaces - set it out well. That's what I did and I got 96/100, so I must've done something right!
Hope this helps, and if you have any others questions feel free to ask.
