I'm just using the booklet to read, then doing past papers and lookinng at the Mark Schemes, the MS is useful because there are so many different things it covers and it's more concentrated than the booklet. If I took the exam seriously I would probably write the booklet down in note form on each different section, e,g, religion, chariot racing etc.

WOOP WOOP last exam of the whole country is basically Latin Sources! Tell me if you know of anyone with a later exam than us! I'll be alone in the exam room at my school

Hi! On the Cicero On Occupation's o the sources booklet, he describes jobs which are 'least acceptable' e.g. fishers. Does this mean it is acceptable or not?

I reckon it's still acceptable, but not thought very highly of, you know? A job is a job but, it doesn't seem to be of very high class- I think!

Past papers are always useful and rememeber to go over the sources and make notes of an external sources used...
