This mock paper was generated by an analysis of which topics had been covered in the two SAMS papers and the 2018 exam. The analysis showed the topics not yet used as a questions focus. These topics were then used to formulate questions in the language of the exam paper. Hence, by completing this mock, a student will not simply be practising those questions already asked, but rather being tested on the gaps. All seven religions are contained within the paper here, so that the relevant ones can be taken out for use as a mock paper. Beliefs and Practices are on separate pages for each religion, so that it is easy to just test Beliefs or Practices. This paper does not provide space for answers, though questions could be printed out and stuck over an existing paper if a teacher wants students to work from an ‘authentic’ paper.
