CSS Philosophy Past Paper Trends

Aristotle is an excellent example of how topics come back without being repeated. In 2024, the question was about eudaimonia and its application to contemporary ethical issues. He reappeared in 2026, this time with virtue and moral superiority. Hegel was paired with Kant in a 2024 question, although his dialectical technique was addressed separately in 2025. Al-Ghazali also appeared in 2024 and 2025, first through his intellectual journey and then through his views on cause and effect. So spotting a repeated name in these papers is useful, but it does not tell you which part of that philosopher’s work will be asked.
