hey guys,

I'm taking this exam in the summer and was wondering how everybody is revising/preparing especially as we don't have a textbook.

has anyone got any practice exam questions/predictions on what might come up?

thanks guys!

my teacher gave us old chapters from books t to make notes on and i watch videos and make mindmaps
has anyone got notes on christianity for paper 3 - literally just started learning it this week
I'm finding it really difficult without a text book- everything is taking twice as long to revise as I'm having to use notes from class and the internet! I Have hardly any notes for Christianity and can't really find much online either! How are you finding it?

Which questions came up?
i dunno, the paper was okay i suppose. the grade boundaries should be lower than normal because we are the first group to do it.
yeah i thought everything was okay except the science question

Do you remember what the wording of the question was, and which mark question it was?
Guys I think I messed up for the 10 marker. I began analysing it and linking it to William James’ features of a religious experience. I didn’t even mention Russell. Ahhh such an idiot.

Also what kind of points did people make for the 30 marker including the synoptic link?
