CCEA A2 History

Scroll to see replies

Did you get culture? :/ I really have grown to hate history ever since taking it at a level. Uhm I usually use about 16/17. Yea my thoughts exactly!!! I'm going to TRY and learn it all but that probably won't work out..

I was doing russian foreign policy so the question was about was the foreign policy characterised by change or continuity from 1917-1991:/ in each essay? :redface:

I dont think I could learn that many for every single topic! Are you just learning essays ?

Oh! Fingers crossed scaling will work in your favour :smile:

I used some of the same ones..like the wooden bridge speech applies to hr, Sinn Fein and Easter rising.. I also tried to pick small quotes so they weren't long chunks.

I think they may throw government of Ireland up as a source..hasn't been a source yet and was an essay question in 2011. I've looked at the pattern anyway and it's a guarantee that we get home rule, Sinn Fein or Easter rising as an essay option so learn those OFF by heart :smile:

How was ur English and what was it? I think mine was terrible!!

Sorry I'm only replying now! My English was Chaucer and historical drama plays. It went okay I think, I predicted what came up so I was happy with that.

That would be a good mix! I wrote about aggressive and defensive policies and how they were continous to spread communism in east europe and protect ussr. however there was change with economic policies and changes in circumstances also led to change in policies etc. But everyone else wrote about security and then change bein economy..I just overcomplicated it! Wby?

My Shakespeare was sooo ****. Like I think I argued it badly. I had jane eyre today and it was a gift of a paper. Such an easy and nice question but it means that grade boundaries will fall..FML

That's a good idea. I'm a hardcore revision note maker so mine will be extremely detailed. I categorise the information of a specific theme: e.g Home rule: Asquith and liberals, conservatives, events etc
