Share your revision tips, and discuss things related to this exam. What topics have you chosen to work on?
SECTION A - GERMANY AND APPEASEMENT; A9, A3
SECTION B - INDIA; B5
SECTION C - MIDDLE EAST; C5.
What about you? Which themes have you chosen to do? And do you know where I can find some good notes for my Indian depth study. Do you think the exam will be hard or easy? There's seem so little time for the exam; how do we keep on with the time, especially, for section B (15 mark question)? And what's the technique of answering that 15 mark question of section B and section C?

Thank you; however, could you please tell me how to calm my nerves during the history exam, for I usually panic during the exam; furthermore, my situation is bad: my schedule for history revision is going chaotic, and I have so much to read and so little time - what do I do?

Also, for my IGCSE History exam I'm doing Russian Revolution, Stallin, Russia from Autrocracy to Dictatorship and International Relations
So much to do! Aaaargh! xD

My revision schedule for History doesn't start till tomorrow though (I've still got to cover Biology and Chemistry syllabuses TODAY! and a little bit of tomorrow) the most important thing to remember is that you HAVE to stay focused as it's absolutely paramount and try to remain calm in the exam, otherwise you'll start to hyperventilate and your mind will automatically go blank. You wouldn't want that, would you? Pull all nighters if necessary, read carefully and thoroughly through yout textbook and make concise notes where appriopriate. GOOD LUCK AND STAY POSITIVE!

What if you're without a credit card, and you can't pay for the book? What if you can't afford the book? Are there free alternatives?

I don't think there are any free alternatives on the internet, though. But yeah, I urge you to ask your parents profusely. You're gonna be fine
Good luck!

Hey guys,
Do you mean the paper 4 history exam? Because I'm in Czech Republic and I took paper 1 last Thursday and am taking paper 2 this Friday.
I think i'm doing a slightly different exam than you? But I think they're all more or less the same.
Anyway does anybody have any tips for source based questions? thanks
btw I did my exam on WW1 peace treaties and Interwar relations, Cold War, and Germany 1918-45.

How are you guys going to deal with time during the exam for each section - are you going to spend 1 minute to write the times you will finish each section? Timing is my major concern with history... :/
I've chosen, Germany, Cold War, WW1, Changing Nature of Warfare

You're scared of running out of time?! Don't be silly, we'll have 2 hours and 30 minutes! That's a plenty of time! I'm sure you'll have finished all of your questions before 2 hours have passed! GOOD LUCK!
