    This is what I've got for Philosophy...

    Existentialism

    -Freedom
    -Bad Faith
    -Choice
    -Human Solidarity
    -Situation and Other People

    Philosophy Of Mind

    -Dualism
    -Behaviourism
    -Identity Theory
    -Eliminativism
    -Functionalism

    Ethics(only getting asked three Q's out of the five below topics)

    -Feminism
    -Intuitionism
    -Moral Universalism
    -Kantian Ethics
    -Utiltarianism

    Problem is I don't know if we are getting asked anything on the Plato section, possibly the exam is split into four sections and we only have to answer three Q's.Not really sure whats happening frankly.

    I was hoping you or Fabio would know.

    I'm guessing that we are getting asked about Plato and that we have to choose to do 3 Q's from the 4 sections.

    We should be getting an option of Q's on all of the 4 sections - 5 on Existentialism, 5 on Philosophy of Mind, 3 on Ethics and I assume something on Plato.So doing all sections is not needed methinks but if you want to cover all bases...

    Basically I'm just doing Dualism, Plato and 3 sections of Ethics.However I'm not continuing the subject and not too bothered about how I do in the exam.

    Well that was a complete disaster.

    Anyone know when the results are coming out?I'm hoping that I don't have to repeat my failed Philosophy exam to carry on to next year, do I?:(
