Aw it's not stress - I find memorising quotes really easy :smile: haha I had 82 for English... I just think quotes help me create an argument which leads to analysis!

We were never told in higher history to put in quotes so I learnt none and got an A1 and that includes my extended essay :smile: and in response to an earlier post maths is definetely harder than History!

D you think it is wise to just memorise why the labour/liberal reforms were introduced and how useful/to what extent did they help British people etc?

Liberals:
Why were the Liberal Reforms introduced?
How successful were the Liberal Reforms?

Labour:
How successful were the Labour Welfare Reforms/Did Labour succeed in creating a welfare state?

That will be all you need!

In the Britain topic there are a total of 6 topic questions that could be asked but only 3 are.
So learning only 3 essays would be risky :/ we might be an unlucky year and get weird questions.
I learned 4 different essays, the 2 liberals, democracy and labour.

Good luck! :smile:
How much historiography are you guys putting in your essays? :smile:

I'm hoping for Suffragettes because it was my extended response, but I'd take Liberals or Labour too! :smile:

I think it would be a waste of time memorising the effectiveness of Liberal reforms since that has been asked 2 years in a row. I originally thought that Labour would be most likely to appear this year as it's not been mentioned since 2010. However, the Labour reforms essay was repeated in 2009 and 2010, and the effectiveness of Liberals reforms essay was repeated in 2010 and 2011, so there's actually a high chance that why the Liberal reforms were passed might come up.

I'm doing Britain, The Road to War and Scottish Independence.
For Britain we were told only to learn the Labour and Liberals topics and to ignore Democracy but the other two classes at my school weren't even taught the democracy topics but I think I'll try and learn one of the democracy topics just in case the three questions are only democracy, pretty scared in case that does happen :/ I'm fine with Liberals and Labour but haven't even looked at a democracy essay :/
The others are just a case of memorising everything and for paper two just getting my technique right.
History is ALWAYS the exam/nab/prelim that stresses me out the most!
As for quotes I'm just going to memorise a few for each essay.
Hope everyone is getting on okay with their studying!
