The exam questions are analysed in greater detail in my book How to get an A Grade and also samples fully marked can be found in the peped book Model Essays both available in the peped shop. Notice that the exam questions cited below from the specimen paper 2016 and the actual paper of 2018 cannot be asked in this form again. Notice how similar the specimen paper question was to the actual question in 2018, however, with the only other moral theory mentioned (only situation ethics and natural law can be applied to this issue).
