hi, im sorry to be a pain but do by any chance have crusader notes or essays that I can look at? I’m feeling a bit :frown:

I have a couple of essay plans and notes if you want me to add them as revision sources somewhere.
Anything specific you'd want me to add?

thank you so much. Specifically just crusader states and the interim between the 2nd and 3rd crusade because there’s so much there.

Hey, I'm doing civil rights as well, do you have any interpretation essay questions other than the ones in the textbook or revision guide? I want to practice them some more but I've done them all now 😬

I'm doing:

Unit 1: From Pitt to Peel - Britain 1783-1853
Unit 2: Spain 1469-1556
Unit 3: The Ascendency of France 1610-1715

I enjoy History a lot! Essays are quite difficult though, I get As often but I just can't crack that top boundary no matter how hard I try :redface:

(EDIT - I'm doing the reformed A Level so I'm not sitting any AS exams in History)

I've currently been revising from my own revision powerpoints, using the headings from the specification to direct my specific focuses.

Planning essays also seems to be quite helpful.

I'm in the same boat; I think a friend sent me the exemplar paper if you want me to add it onto TSR.
Have you bought or had a look at the new revision guide? It's quite useful

That would be great thank you!! Yeah I've got the revision guide and it's really good for example questions, but do you know where I could find more model answers?

What mark did you get for your historical essay?

I'm nervous too. Really nervous. I dunno for the essay questions but for the interpretation Q. I think it'll be something on Khrushchev.
