    I was really happy it was on the suffragettes as I predicted it would be them...I managed to finish all the questions except for question 4 (the value to a historian one)...I was left with only 3 minutes to do it. History exams should be way longer than 75 minutes
    Hopefully I still managed an A/A* as it's my best paper
    How'd you find it?

    How comes you didnt manage to do question 4?!xD
    Did you do the germany paper for the first exams?
    How much was the question 4 worth?
    I probably did really badly in this.
    I didn't get lessons for it since I had took it as an additional gcse.

    It was a year ago, I don't really remember whether I actually learnt the dates or not...I think I made them up as I went along according to the info that they had already given us.
    Is your examtomorrow?

    Possibly...since your exam is tomorrow...i think you should revise as much as you possibly can.
    Loads of people have a chance to retake germany if you really had to, but i dont know what year youre in so xD i cant tell say.
    But have a look at the grade boundaries for June 11, thats the paper that I did, and the grade boundaries were reasonably low.
    But itll probably get higher if loads of other people find it easy xD
    How are your classmates finding it?

    I'm predicted an A/A*. I got 4850 in the controlled assessment. I think I got an A* in the crime and punishment paper and an A in the Protest paper...but I really just want a B. Plus we take all our history
    exams at the end so I don't really know how well I have to do on this paper to secure a B
