I did my first draft just before xmas, but am at the mo at about twice the word count; i see large amount of footnotes and editing coming my way! Plus i think i will have to type one of my sources into my appendicies... i make detailed reference to it and the examiner will be lost without it!

Ah, damm the acte econtiaf....

I still haven’t come up with a title…Emperor Charles V is my topic, and I’m completely stumped by it.

But have you written anything?

The title can be sorted later.

"To what extent was the fall of the Tsarist regime due to the actions and character of Nicholas II"

I got my title back from the moderator today and he had commented on changes to most my class, where as all he said about mine was that I needed to put a date on, so I think he was pleased with mine which maybe a good indication. I think the dates will be 1894(When Nick became Tsar) - 1917(When he was overthrown). The moderator said not to do more than 50 years where as mine is 23 anyway.

Do something that is in an exams boards criteria so at least you will have a couple of decent, not too mind numbing books etc to quote from - I did my Edexcel timed c/w piece on the English Civil War which was good but my mate was doing it on the role of women in South Africa which as you can imagine had zilch! Luckily her mum is an anthropology prof so she squeezed past that hurdle but don't try this at home! Also for peeps doing this crappy A2 stressful timed c/w a good idea is to colour code your plan with your sources and bibliography which saves an awful lot of trouble trying to show where each bit of info came from! I was the only one in my class to do so - got the highest internal mod mark and the only one to get A in the c/w module!
