You are doing the 2 AS Exams for Britain 1918-97 and USA 1955-97 right?

I have no notes for America at all but I'm working on ones for Britain so I may get those done soon. Plus I also have a really good document which is a great text book for the Britain exam which I can also give you if you want?

Winner winner chicken dinner!

Also taking the course, but the earlier USA section. Hey, tell you what, really struggling with the first topic in the Britain module, with regards to the response to the economic challenges and the changing relations between the government and workers. If anyone has any notes, massively appreciated.

Ooh, and if any of you have any need for notes or examples of high-marked essays, I've got a couple. If anyone has any essays that got an A, could I have a read?

Oh, and anyone have any revision summary notes on the any of the Britain module?

I just completed making a Fact File each on President Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan and Bush for the USA exam. These will be good to revise from on each of them because in the exam it may ask us about how successful or great their presidency was so this is a good layout of the main things.

So if anyone wants them then message me with your email and I'll happily send it👍

Hey guys! Our history teacher told us that we should watch the 'Crash Course' channel on YouTube as it would really help with America. It's really helpful but I'm not sure if they also have videos on the UK

Hiii!!

I'm finding it alright - just a lot of content to remember as anything could come up! Struggling with the sustained judgement in essays though, hoping I get there in the end! :smile:

The worst thing I get is when Im cut for time and not sure about my final judgement so I have to bluff my way through the essay before I realize what judgement I actually come to. In one of my practise papers, I wrote to a "reasonable extent" in the opening paragraph before actually writing in the conclusion that it was to a limited extent and forgot to edit my intro haha. The essay writing is a bit of a pain, I love the course though! Do you have any plans for revising the Britain and USA topics? You gonna use different methods for the different modules?
