Wolsey? Have never come across him in my revision. What years are you covering?

Thanks for the link! Not entirely sure what will come up to be honest. For Elizabeth I'm hoping it will be foreign policy because that's where I have the most to talk about. I would guess that you are doing a different topic to me though. I'm doing 1588-1629 (Elizabeth, James & Charles).

Are knowledge of dates particularly important for this paper? Can't find them mentioned in the mark scheme.

Ahhh forgot there's more than one set of questions for this exam! xD Urm, i think you need to know some of the main ones, but not alot. If you don't know the date don't guess, just don't put it!

Good to know! Yeah I know main ones (i.e. start & end of wars and key economic issues) but learning everything in between would be impossible! From the A grade answers that I've seen dates don't seem to be too important anyway.
