Exam Paper example:


Exam Paper example:

The 4 additional SPAG marks are given for your answers in Part B. Some of you MAY want to start with this section then when your

brains are fresh.


Exam Paper example:

You need to read the instructions etc BEFORE the time begins for

the exam.

Once the 1:30 starts you should be INSIDE the booklets.

Before the end of the exam though, check again that you have

written your name etc on the front.


Part A: Inside the paper…


Thinks to look out for…

The ‘topic’ for each section will be written at the top. All of the questions within that section (e.g. A1) will

be on that topic…

…ALWAYS READ THE HEADING



E.G.

On this example paper, the heading for A1 is

Euthanasia and Hospices. Therefore all of the

questions will be expecting you to show your knowledge

of Euthanasia and Hospices, and Christian attitudes towards them



All of the Part A questions will have the number of

marks available in brackets at the end of the answer

lines.

Use this as a guide for what they are expecting to you write, and how much



Some questions will even give you hints – such as

these numbers…



Sometimes you might find a newspaper cutting or

some other piece of writing you need to read. READ

IT!!



It will help give you moreinsight into the purpose of the questions that follow.


Part B: Inside the insert…


Look at the topics first to help you decide which set to answer


You might also want to look at the ‘types’ of questions you’ll be

answering. They aren’t always the same in B5

and B6


If you’re ‘better’ at answering six mark

questions, perhaps one section has more of the six mark questions, and

less of the four / three mark ones


Whichever section you choose, you must keep a very careful eye on how many marks you need to be writing for. Remember, the answer section in the booklet for Part B does not have the ‘correct’

number of lines like it does for Part A.


General Exam Paper tips:• don’t spend too long on each question. You will need

every minute

• If a question totally stumps you, look at some of the other questions in that group. They may help you understand what the difficult question is asking you

• If you have any spare time at the end of the exam, you MUST read back over what you have written –sometimes we lose the point of an answer half way through.


Exam Questions:

Why don’t you try some timed answers to some of the questions in the example paper…
