Hey guys :smile: I'm taking:

English Language - AQA
English Literature - AQA (Macbeth, An Inspector Calls, A Christmas Carol, Love and Relationships Anthology)

Religious Studies - AQA (Christian ethics and Hinduism)

I don't know anyone else doing Hinduism for RS :s-smilie:, we're taking it because our head of department had taught Christianity and Hinduism at uni level but she's on maternity leave now so we don't have any more proper in school help. If anyone is by any chance taking it, predictions would be really helpful :smile:

I'm predicted an A* but my mock didn't go that well I got an A for Silas Marner (grades are subjective I want an A* in English) so now I'm really worried. I always do extract but do you know any predictions I'm so stressed
