With 2 unit religion and peace, if it states to answer the question in regards to only 1 religious tradition  (I do Islam and Christianity), do the markers still expect you to write a similar amount to what would be written if you had to analyse 2 traditions?

[daenyy]

hey y'all, anyone who did last year's exam please help!!  I can't find the 2016 hsc question for religion and peace anywhere due to copyright issues but I think I found the quote - "we look forward to the time when the Power of Love will replace the Love of Power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace."

is this right??

With the multiple choice, because some are so randomn, how do you study for it? With past papers, do you just have to memorise the answers to them incase they come up again?

I just write my answers on paper (like just the letter) and then do the paper again after a few days until i familiarise myself with what i get wrong and in the end stop getting them wrong

Hey, so firstly, I would recommend doing heaps of work for the 5 markers over the multiple choice as it is likely by covering the options for the 5 marker in depth, you will be prepared for any MC question. Also no need to memorise highly doubt they'll repeat questions. Just do all the past questions, see where your weakness is and that will also help you find where your weak point is for the 5 marker
