Anyone else very worried about this. The part B part of the exam looks like a nightmare plus i am doing french revolution which makes it even worse :frown:


If you know how to answer part B, it's pretty straight forward...
I'm doing the British Empire for A2 and I have Cromwell left! nooo!1!1

I dot really know any structure for it :frown: , we've spent so much time on the knowledge side, which is pretty useless since we only apply our knowledge 40% of the time in the exam.

Lets all discuss the structure side of the essay that's the most important part. Knowledge only comes into it 40% of the time. Unless i am wrong...

Could you possibly rename the thread to, "Oh no I will fail AS History..."?

(I'm on AQA, doing American Civil Rights Campaign 1945-1968, by the way.)
I haven't started any work for it, I had 5 exams this week with maths tomorrow- no time D:
I'm doing Disraeli and Gladstone :/

Anybody else doing India? I am currently revising by going through each chapter of the textbook and summarising each paragraph. The only problem is that it takes SO long, I mean at least 5 hours per topic (11 topics) so it is going to be quite difficult to finish it. As there are few past papers I'll probs just spend the day before doing one, and I'll use the rest of the day to learn the key facts - e.g. Curzon invaded Tibet in 1904, the Great Rebellion - May 1857, 1983 Ripon reforms, etc.

A lot of work, but achievable. Good luck to everyone else doing this exam.
Yup, OCR and I'm doing the Crusades! I don't know a single person outside of my school who does that topic, and quite honestly I don't blame them, it's bloody hard!
