    Gcse re unit 2?
    Hi, in GCSE RE I got a B in my Unit 1 , which I'm pretty happy with considering I only did about half the paper. Anyway, I would really like an A overall (really who wouldn't?) and I'm just wondering, what I would need to get a A overall. Would I need an A or A* in my next paper?
    Thanks in advance for any answers!

    You need an A*. Don't fret, it's a piece of piss.

    Depends on how high your B was. If it's a high B, a good A will be enough to bring it up. If it's low, an A* will secure an A.
    I felt there was too much time in the exam, though I got really bored and some of the questions really confused me.

    I only did Unit 1 in year 10 and so my overall RE GCSE is a B..
    Main advice is learn the keywords. I'm doing Sociology this year as a GCSE and that's one of my main tasks to study
