How did you find History P1 + P2?

It was a very nice paper!!!
I was never taught the Cold War....I did my extended essay on it....and the questions were really good ones to answer....the other people in my class did China or Russia and they said it was quite hard....?

P2 wasn't so bad I did Q1 and Q11.....clear cut questions....couldn't go wrong with Q11!!!!
I think everyone I know did Q11 on Hitler
Q1 was a little harder I thought....

Any thoughts?

I did Q1 and 11, 11 on Hitler

I was going to do Stalin but he does not fall within Topic 3 (Topic 3 includes Lenin for USSR instead of Stalin, so I didn't wanna risk it)

its all about Q13 compare/contrast Hitler and Castro's foreign policy
and Q23 to what extent did containment/marshall plan develop the Cold War 47-61

i also did 13 and 23, but i wrote about Mao/Castro for 13. it wasnt that bad I HOPE. but i didnt have time to talk about the second berlin crisis so thats a little bit of a problem. but aynway, i think the first one was good, and u normally need 31/40 for a 7 in paper 2! :biggrin:
