The 30marker passages were pretty good too. Would've loved a society or gov turning point but tbf, they were nice with giving us 2 thematic change/continuity questions. My school finished Economy late so I knew that question would be iffy if I did it.

Yeah I thought the paper was pretty alright I’m just glad a “the lives” essay didn’t come up plus I used 2 extra 4 page booklets on top of my 12 page booklet

Ye we were expecting that aswell!! Although the intepretations did mention a bit about trade unions. A lot of the gilded age facts for women I was going to use were already in the source, so I didn’t have much of my own knowledge I could use
Yeah I had the exact same experience, they took the interpretations from the text book which was a little annoying but the thematic essays were good.
