I did Spec B, topics 3, 4, and 5 and my teacher hasn't revised with us over them properly, so I think I did terrible, except on the Cuban Missile Crisis topic.

I done 1,2,4 It was an absolutely brilliant paper, especially the 10 marker on question 1, loved it, think I'll lose some marks on purpose on two of the sources, but apart from that I think I'm golden.:biggrin:

I just loved the Kaiser's foreign policy bullet point, so so much to write about, just slightly concerned about my handwriting near the end/

I agree, it was terrible. My teacher wasn't even in this morning or all day today as well to go through anything with us.

Did you pick History for year 11, or did you have it in year 9 and 10, too? I picked it in year 10 to do in year 11, and I'm not hoping for anything more than a D but if I do get a D at most with next week's paper, then brilliant, but probs not.

Ah, in my school in year 7 and 8, we did History, Geography and English all as one, and the more intelligent students were able to pick History or eography independently as one of their options, but as I was originally down to not even get Cs by the end of year 11, I couldn't do it, but now I'm doing Higher Tier both English Papers so I think I've improved slightly :P
