This is what someone said on another thread

'Based on this, if I could take a guess, I would say that the questions may be on the rise of television, homosexuality, the sexual revolution (policies of swinging sixties), Lloyd Georges government, racism, the labour government of 1945, trade unions, welfare policies after 1945, thatcher "rolled back the state" and perhaps a question on women after 1945 and the blurring of the classes/ class divisions between lower, middle and upper. I'm not confident on the politics side of things so I will have to revise that. But I am almost certain that the sexual revolution will come up somewhere, as it was a big chunk of the course and is highlighted as being important in the specification.'

But dont take my word for it!

I think politics is the death of everyone!
How many sides does everyone usually write in the exam per 20 mark essay? (i know we shouldn't base it on this, but it always worries me ahaha)

Really varies with detail and handwritting size.

I tend to do brief intro, then 3 detailed for pre war, war and post war detailed conclusion if its that kina essay or intro, 4 diff theme paras which are less detailed then a detailed conclusion.
Anyone doing route D? (Democracy and protest in Britain, Unification of Germany and Civil rights and race relations in America)

i do route c too!!! what do you thinks going to come up?
any predictions for Germany 1918-89 or Italy 1911-46?!
What are people thinking for option F America?
Anyone doing Britain 1625-1701 tomorrow, France 1774-1799 and Germany 1871-1990? Are you taught to write essays thematically/factors? Really hate the source questions, not feeling ready for France tbh.
