you drop from 2 unit to 1 unit
where do they get the marks from?..
like if you got 15/20 for your first assesment in term 4
then you drop down to 1 unit religion
where do the marks come from?
thank you

ur marks will stay the same.
1u is exactly the same as 2u SOR, cept with 2u u do one more religious trad depth study + Religion n Non-rel + religion n peace
the last 2 chaps most schools do at the end of the year.
so it doesnt matter if u drop, unless uve done 3 depth studies and/or started one of the last 2 chaps, for which it would mean that learning those had been a waste.

Alright
the 2 unit and 1 unit class had the same assessment
though different weightings
we got told that 2 unit would be marked harder than 1 unit
so if were to drop down
would my mark stay the same?
thank you

yes, they should stay the same...weightings dont really matter until they matter!
Besides, if you drop, your raw score would have to weighted accordingly if they are weighting now

As for marking harder...thats crap unless the 2 unit teacher marked the 2 unit papers only and the 1 unit teacher/s marked the 1 unit only (which would mean they was a massive inconsistency in the marking of the task)...most schools with large cohorts (ie more than one class!) will simplify the marking and get one/two teachers to mark them to ensure consistency-especially if they were due at the same time!!...plus why would they mark one assessment harder than the other when its exactly the same task? That doesnt make sense, especially if its exactly the same task ie same outcomes, same requirements etc

If you are not sure, see you RE co-ordinator (if they are not your teacher) and get the facts straight from the 'horses mouth' (I wouldnt talk to your 'class teacher' as its not their 'call')
