Any tips on how to revise, it's the new specification as well which makes it harder as RS isn't that popular of a subject!

I'm doing philosophy, ethics and sikhism. our teachers have been overloading us with info which is irrelevant to the spec

This is exactly my issue... The teachers seem to be unable to understand the specification and therefore give us pointless essays and ridiculously hard content to anlayse rather than allowing us to understand the basics.....

That's really helpful to know we are doing 2 out of the three subjects areas. Would you like to DM me or I could upload my notes directly to this thread so we can swap and compare notes?

Exactly!!! Edexcel should have created a textbook. I totally put less effort in RE now than my other subjects. I dont mind dm would be better and I could send you my notes across via email?
