I wasn't sure whether you had to put more than one?
I put MLK only but if you included more then I wouldn't think you would get penalised?
What was the first question on the planet earth section? Was it causes of climate change, or problems caused by climate change?

Well that was easy
I mean, almost all the questions or the topics each question covered has come up before
I swear I did a past paper the other day almost exactly like it
Btw I did Animal Rights, Predjudice, Abortion and War


I know, I did the same topics as you. My teacher literally predicted all the questions that came up!

Such a calm paper, and there were no weirdly worded questions! :smile:
But because of time pressure I have like 5 unfinished questions- probably lost 1 mark on each...but all in all it was great.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who messed up and finished in an hour?!

doubt it. i did the same, i guess they'll just take the one you wrote more about IF they do that. the question did say religious leaderS, so penalisation would be stupid

You definitely won't get penalised but you will most likely show the examiner you know this subject really well and they may be encouraged to give you more marks!
questions:

-for the last question, (religion and young people), i didn't mention marginalisation for the 5 marks on why religious groups set up activities. i mentioned development of religion from young age, peer pressure, and 2 examples. on the 6 marker i just listed religious principles/teachings from scriptures and explained. how many marks lost?

-for just war points, i listed 5 conditions and kinda explained them. marks lost?

-for prejudice 6 marker, i explained how bad auschwitz was and described stephen lawrence's murder, pov being positive discrimination of minority getting more jobs with soma being bible "love thy neighbour". i did put a lot of explanation into holocaust description. marks lost?

was hoping for a*..will probably get a b/a now. help

I defined it as an act of violence intended to cause fear.

An act of violence that kills innocent people to create fear to achieve their aims. Or something like that I can't remember word for word!

I wrote about MLK but then i also added some generic stuff such as praying and holding events to combat prejudice.
