Hello, how do you revise for this paper?
Quite worried for this one as religion and government especially has a lot of content to remember

Am not looking forward to this paper, just did a mock and I didn't have time to revise everything so I got a C, it isn't bad though. It was the 2018 paper and I didn't like it at all, at least it wasn't my real one:smile:
any predictions anyone?
Hopefully Foreign Policy
How do you revise the economic/social and government parts of the course? I'm really struggling lol, I feel like I've focused way too much on foreign policy and rebellion...

I feel the same, definitely struggling with Tudors the most at the moment. Maybe try making a list of each topic for each monarch that you struggle with and then make mindmaps about it or write it out? That’s what I’m doing. Also YouTube helps me too
ah I did this paper last year. Memories...

History with Hilbert is good, he does like ten min videos on the entirety of each monarch, obviously it’s not sufficient revision just to watch those but I find they help me if I want a brief overview of things. He also does a few longer videos which are good. I find if you just type in a monarch or topic you’re struggling in something tends to come up which is helpful:smile:
Thank you, really appreciate it !

My teacher thinks Elizabethan foreign policy is likely!
Oh noooo. The war with Spain and the Mary Queen of Scots business

My teacher thinks Elizabethan foreign policy is likely!
Obviously anything could come up :

However likely topics include

Elizabeth Foreign Policy- never been examined
Elizabeth rebellions
Henry VII government
Henry VIII religion

I really hope society does not come up.
Update: My teacher reckons Elizabeth foreign policy is most likely gonna come up as well now.
I think these are good predictions from what has come up before. Previously questions have been on Mid-Tudor crisis, H7 consolidation H8 government, religious change from Edward to Liz, H7 foreign policy, H8 ministers and Elizabeth economy and society. Hopefully, this means we will get a question on an area that hasn't been examined before like Elizabethan foreign policy!

Foreign policy came up last year so there are people reckoning it'll be religion this year, this paper is definitely the worst of my history papers :frown:
