How did you find the Religious Studies Edexcel Unit 8 exam today(GCSE)?

I thought it was okay!! Hopefully i managed to get an A* overall!!
for section 1 i picked the questions about political party and why genetic engineering is helpful
for section 2 i picked muslim attitudes to bullying and do religious organisations do enough to prevent war
for section 3 i picked how to reduce global warming and will natural resources ever run out
for section 4 i picked why might christians agree with capital punishment and is breaking the law always a sin

for the sin question
for agree i wrote
St Paul taught you had to obey the law
Jesus sais "what's Ceasers belongs to Caaser"
In Islam you have to obey the law of the land
for disagree i wrote
The law may go against God so u have to break it
Law isn't the word of God so u arent going against God by breaking it
The law and God arent the same thing

i dont think it really matters

I did all the same ones as you! Was the definition for the section 2 you did about crime or reform? Also the natural resources running out question was the worst! What did you write for it? :biggrin:

Both papers for RE this year have been good, Unit 1 was easy in comparison to past papers and I knew Unit 8 would be a bit more challenging but it still worked out well. I finished with 4 minutes to go so I could only check my answers for section 1. As that's the SPAG section. Aiming for an A* overall 😄

I know I have a blister from my finger from writing so quickly. They should give us more time, we need time to think not just write. I'm doing Edexcel Maths too and I really hate it so much how they word their wordy questions- they are not specific enough and are confusing :mad:

. But so far I have nothing against OCR because they awarded me an A* for my Core Science exam last year. :biggrin:

I know too much writing. It should be illegal or something to have to write so much for an exam. What exam have you got coming next?
