AQA A2 British History: The State and The People 1918-1964. 3rd June 2013.

I'm going to rotate between mind-mapping and past papers. You?

Was it just our school or was this the worst paper you have ever seen in your entire life?

I sort of agree... The question on the 30s was reasonably decent and the housing one was a bit tricky (I sort of made up the end!) but at least half of my class thought it was a really easy paper.

I think it might just be that our school hadn't learnt the stuff to really be able answer the questions properly. The 30s question was fine but then both of the other two were fairly unanswerable for us. Most people did the Liberal one rather than the housing one (we just hadn't learnt enough to do the housing one - we'd only learnt about Addison's Housing Act, Wheatley's Housing Act and Macmillan's Housing Act fairly briefly). Oh well, let's hope it will be okay!

I think I'm like the only one who didn't do the second question? It's because I felt like I would be repeating myself a lot! :P

Edit: did you do the first or the third one?

I did the first one, I think. It was the one that went something like 'To what extent was conflict in leadership the main reason for the Liberal decline between the years 1918 - 1931'. I also did the second one which we felt was more of a social than economic question because it was asking about the effects of the British economy, not the economy itself. It was a kind of weird paper...
