Have you got an example from past papers or anything of how the question might be worded?

It's new new to the course the only question to have come up was 'to what extent has science replaced religion as the new ideological function in society' 33 marks

Need 90% on this paper but doubt I'll get it.

Some of the 33 markers are very straight-forward sounding, some are devilishly tricky to unravel. Knowing my luck I'll get a ridiculously worded one...

Oh well. Making essay plans by the dozen atm.

You could talk about reliability of statistics: in questionnaires people may be more likely to admit they aren't religious, in phone surveys they may make out to be more religious due to social desirability, and also that many religious groups today do not have any formal register of members x
