Re: Edexcel GCE/ A2 Religious Studies: Unit 4- implicationslol i'm doing it - and scared - i know its a risky strategy but im not going to revise schneewind(partially because i hate it) - as it came up in june 2011 and jan 2012 so very unlikely theyll chuck it in again!(Original post by Sophs17)
Is anyone else doing the Implications unit with Schneewind, Jamieson and LaFollette or is it just me :/
Im gonna focus more on Jamieson -- i would love for it to come up or even lafollette because well laffollettes just amazing/so easy!!!
how u revising for it? -

No predictions really, I just know which passages have come up recently and so I'm assuming it will be one of the others (and hoping that this is the case). I hate this paper so much! Which passages are you learning the most?
Yeah kinda the same with me i think it was story 12 last june and story 5 the june before that is that right? have been looking alot over 4 & 8 but its soo hard to know. have u been given any tips on the best way to answer this to gain the highest marks?

Re: Edexcel GCE/ A2 Religious Studies: Unit 4- implicationsI'm so SORRY, I just saw this now!(Original post by blahblahb)
Yup i'm afraid so, me too! Donovan's article is far too long and confusing I think..
I hope you found it before hand! But two days to go if you didn't!
Its really awesome at highlighting the main ideas.

Re: Edexcel GCE/ A2 Religious Studies: Unit 4- implicationsThe exam is 2 the day after tomorrow and I still know nothing about Westphal, I thought he was called Whayne until yesterday...(Original post by katiexoxo)
The exams 5 days away and I literally know nothing about Westphal. If it comes up I may as well just accept failure. I just don't understand it at all. Blaaaaah -

Re: Edexcel GCE/ A2 Religious Studies: Unit 4- implicationsI haven't numbered the passages - what are they called? I think I've got Jesus - the evidence for last June, and God: a guide for the perplexed for the June before that. No I haven't really, jus to make sure that we put it into our own words and keep referring to the author.(Original post by Orla369)

Re: Edexcel GCE/ A2 Religious Studies: Unit 4- implicationsnot too sure -because the edexcel website is a bit ****ty with alot of past papers protected/not available for use by everyone)(Original post by amujamu)
Hi Guys
Please, may someone kindly list all the essays that have come up in the last 4 years for Schneewind, Lafollette and Jamieson.
Very Much appreciated
Thank You
but im pretty sure my teacher sed something like schnewwind has came up june 2011 and jan 2012 and i think lafollettes come up a couple of times (at least 2)
whereas i think jamieson has only come up once - so fingers crossed for jamieson!!

Re: Edexcel GCE/ A2 Religious Studies: Unit 4- implicationsI'm doing the philosophy implications paper. REALLY hope it's Ayer.
Wouldn't mind Donovan, but I really hope it isn't Westphal...
Was there a sitting in January? And which text was it, if there was? I only know that it was Westphal last June, and Donovan the year before that... -

having a mare.
just about to start revising donovan in the hardcore phase, which means going through with a fine tooth comb. ive literally decided to forget westphal, just not going to do it at all. not only was he last year, but hes on the specimen paper too.

Re: Edexcel GCE/ A2 Religious Studies: Unit 4- implicationsThere are NO January exams for Edexcel A2 RS units. The Jan 2010 paper was a one off to allow students who had studied the Revised Curriculum 2000 spec to re-sit so that they weren't getting in the way of Edxcel's first GCE 2008 spec students in the summer of 2010. That's why there is a January 2010 paper (the only January paper in existence) and why the mark scheme is different from the one that you should have from all the practice papers.
Specimen - Westphal
June 2008 - Ayer (Curriculum 2000)
June 2009 - Westphal (Curriculum 2000)
Jan 2010 - Ayer (Curriculum)
June 2010 - Donovan (GCE 2008)
June 2011 - Westphal (GCE 2008) -

Re: Edexcel GCE/ A2 Religious Studies: Unit 4- implicationsAnyone?(Original post by 12lightf)
Can anyone clarify this for me: Do we discuss the implications of the passage given or the article as a whole? Cheers
In Part A, how much do we talk about the passage and how much on the rest of article
In Part B, the implications on the whole article?
im really not prepared!
