I like ran out of time near the end and rushed 2 of my 12 markers and didn't complete one of them and my handwriting was almost illegible
The last 12 marker on christianity and last one on islam were both horrible. If you didn't write any quotes, what is the max number of marks in 12 marker?

the last 12 marker on islam was absolutely awful i’m not sure how many marks you would’ve got if you didn’t use a quote though

I could not find a quote for the 12 marker about Christian worship so I was stuck. I realised after that there was a quote to back it up, it was too late anyways.

Yeah, but you should quotes, since it stated use “Christian teaching” so I lost a couple of marks because I didn’t use a quote or reference.

The one and two markers for Christianity and Judaism was great, and some questions were similar for the Christianity and Judaism questions like both asked about worship and charity

I think it went okay! There was a point where I didn't think I'd be able to finish the paper but I thankfully managed to complete all the questions on time!
