RE- what’s the point

I don’t mean to offend anyone but personally I don’t see the point in RE. At my school we could pick 4 options and have 5 lesson over two weeks the same as RE, so why should we do RE when we could pick another GCSE subject. They should make it optional because no one likes it and people just mess around in my class. Obviously it’s still a GCSE so I’m going to try and get a pass but I’m not spending the same amount of time revising for RE than more important subjects.
What’s your opinions?

I am in TOTAL agreement with you. I don't care about RE either, it's such a waste of time.

Hell yes. In our school we have to take the classes but we don't have to take the exam so at least it's one less subject to revise. But half the class get sh*t grades on purpose in class tests so they get kicked out. The teacher figured out :frown: :frown:
