Hey, nice resources, which topics are you doing?
I'm in A2 Philosophy but redoing Unit 2 of AS: - 1) Knowledge of the External World and Free Will and Determinism
safe to say I just can't understand the questions and what I should write, however I do know the theories and concepts.

How did you find the exam?
Reason and Experience:
a) two reasons to hold the tabula rasa hypothesis
b) "All our concepts are ultimately derived from sense experience" Discuss.
Persons:
a) two reasons to distinguish human from being a person
b) discuss why a machine could be a person.
I ran out of time and didnt get to do my second part b at alll...
Other than that, I thought the questions were good, did you take R+E part b 'concepts' to mean 'knowledge'

Concepts are ideas but I don't think they are knowledge because knowledge = justified,true etc.?

Your handbook says concepts are essentially "understandings" which is basically what I wrote about..
Do you have a similar handbook for PHIL3?

Im kind of the same on R+E since I thought concepts were knowledge or 'understandings'... despite what everyone is saying I dont think concepts are quite ideas!!

I discussed simple and complex concepts - this is where I understood it wasn't knowledge. Will probably get higher marks on this.
Overall, R+E = I think I got 2+11+6...
