I went specific too, talked about how he led spain from the years of fear and hunger through to economic recovery in the 60s. I think women rights and censorship is a good option though because it shows what he was like as a person...

Many of my class talked generally about his ruling though so I was a bit worried

I actually loved the exam, I think I did better in Spanish which I've only been studying for 2 years, than I did in German which I've studied for 10 years. Did anyone do Como Agua para Chocolate for the book?

I think being specific is better maybe though...I mainly studied the civil war though and just did a bit on this so I only referred to those two topics... I hope it was ok!! Your ideas sound good as well :smile:

Does anyone remember the exact phrasing of the historical RBE?
i did religion, talking about the conservative view that in secular societies outward religion may cause conflict and the marxist view that it doesnt benefit the public so shouldn't be exposed. countered with a liberal point of view and talked about equal rights and freedom of religion and expression, kind of rushed though. is this okay anyone????
Just realised I didn't write a conclusion for my discursive essay :frown: what's the maximum number of marks I can still get without one??

Yeah that sounds great!! The more original the better. Especially with such specific vocab as it seems you must've used!!

thank you, Im somewhat relieved as I need to get around 74 and I was thinking I got only like 32 for that. some vocab I used was: igualitarismo, marxista, burguesia, clase trabajadora, secular, prevalencia, individualismo...are those basic? or are they fine?

Well obviously a whole answer can't be really high level! I think it's actually better to use specify vocab sporadically, so those sound perfect - if there's too many it's unnatural.
