History is amazing!!!! Take it!! I do AQA History which is a lot of British Politics and although the economic policies are not fun, reading some of the stupid things politicians do and then stabbing each other in the back (trying to pass the blame on) is!!! In got an A at AS and I'm predicted an A at A2. Its not that difficult if you memorise all the stuff. I didn't finish the British Paper at AS and I still managed to get an A in it so My advice: 1. Always include other historians views, examiners love that but don't make the historians up, they tend to check. 2. Try and find fun in everything, that way it makes it intresting I did Communist Russia at GCSE and one of the things that I remembered was that Stalin died because his personal doctor was not at hand to treat him as Stalin had purged him a year earlier for saying 'take it easy'. The only other guy who could have saved him was drunk and being entertained by prostitutes. Irony anyone 3. Always do balanced arguments.
