How to Get an A Grade subjects the new OCR Religious Studies specification to a close analysis and evaluation, in order to simplify and integrate an approach to gaining A or A*. There are sections on exam questions, how to think like a philosopher, how to integrate the three papers (Philosophy of Religion, Ethics and Christian Thought), and how to answer harder questions. The integrating principles of history, hermeneutics, human nature and metaphysics are explained by referencing across the three papers, encouraging students to adopt a wider perspective. Textbook materials are also considered and evaluated and students encouraged too enrich their own additional reading using the website that accompanies the book, peped.org. This book will help students and teachers navigate their way towards creative excellence.
