i found the sources quite difficult to use but i did that. What did you talk about for provenance?

yeah I did, thought it was quite a good question tbh as you could cross reference loads and good provenances.

What did (any of you who studied India) put in terms of weighting and reliability of sources 10,11 and 12 in question A?

if you mean option E, reponding to change, I did! Re sat from last year. Not sure how I feel about it, what about you?

did that one! not sure about parta a, thought the sources were a little bit tricky. chose the one of racial minorities for part b!

I thought it was okay actually! I wasn't confident with the topic of reality tv shows but luckily it was a part a so own knowledge wasn't really needed! What question did you do for Part B I did the first one on racial minorities?? I'm sure you did well!

haha I bet you did too and yeah exactly! I was so pushed for timing throughout though, that exam is so short ooh yeah me too I did that one!! can you remember the exact question because I've been panicking I might have read it wrong lol?! what sort of stuff did you write for part b?:-)

Who did the political factions question? Henry VIII????

I think the question was 'How far do you agree that television helped to show racial minorities in a positive light?' yeah the timing is ridiculous! I wrote about Enoch Powell and the Rivers of Blood, and then other television shows that were about racial minorities like Till Death Us Do Part, Curry and Chips, Love Thy Neighbour, The Melting Pot and Desmonds and then just explained a bit about them and how they showed racial minorities!

I did Henry as well but the wolsey question. didnt get the factions one at all or it was probably the stress ahah. how did you find the 20 marker?

The sources didn't really give much to say but cross referencing was fairly easy.

Really? It was fairly easy. U just talk about factors that influences Henry's decision to push Protestantism. Like Cromwell, Anne boelyn, his own beliefs and corruption of the cherish

Who did the political factions question? Henry VIII????

haha I bet you did too and yeah exactly! I was so pushed for timing throughout though, that exam is so short ooh yeah me too I did that one!! can you remember the exact question because I've been panicking I might have read it wrong lol?! what sort of stuff did you write for part b?:-)

Were you doing mass media and social change in Britain? I did that one! What part B did you do? and how did you find it?

Worst exam yet
Did women's suffrage and thought the two B essays were evil: the first one was so specific and it would be hard to find enough to say about one act for 40 marks so I did the second one about involvement in public life but all my own knowledge was IN the sources so I couldn't really add much
I'd been getting pretty much 40/40 in all my practice essays and I knew all the dates and legislation so well but I couldn't fit any of it into the question as everything I did know was already there!
So gutted

I did that one too! I did racial minorities what did you do??

I did the race ones too! I think it went well but I'm not sure about my conclusion

What own knowledge did you include? I think the most important part is the main body of the essay so as long as thats fine then I'm sure the conclusion won't affect you too much!
