I'm actually lookin forward to doin it at a-level there was a lot I 4 markers but I struggle through! The first question about global concern got me the one about Christian views to gods creation of the world or something like that!

It was tricky! I discussed bout how god created the earth for us and that we were put on earth to look after it! Basically I wrote about stewardship! What did write?

i had no idea about the gods creation question!! i just put that we are stewards of the earth and that god saw it was good!! i also said we were more important than animals but i dunno if thats right

also the somatic embryo stuff threw me off
ANDDDD
if anyone else did B6, there was a 6 marker on why christians support the capital punishment, i had no idea what to write because i could not find any teachings that justify capital punishment apart from an eye for an eye

Ohh yea the stomatic cell stuff was like ohh ok :s but I think it's ok yea i didn't do b6 because of the 6 marker on why Christians support capital punishment! So I just stuck to what I new really! Did you wrote for it about how some agree because if a murderer was out in prison they were likely to re offend so by executing them society would be protected and it wud be impossible for that person to murder again and that it wud act as a deterrent to put people off committing a certain crime as they wud see what there punishment wud be! I noticed an answer like that in my books when I was revising

Yep me too! I wrote that we were created to be stewards over Gods creation and look after the birds of the air, fish of the sea etc etc. Haha! Hopefully we got it right!

I'm sure you will have done perfectly fine! Don't worry yourself about it, ethics is mainly about your own judgement! Good luck and I wrote that about stewardship too!

My predicted grade was a B but I managed to sweet talk my teacher into pushing it up to an A so I could get into my desired sixth form and I got two A's on my mock so hopefully :frown:
