History A level help

Hi, I'm doing History AS level atm and i have a few questions to ask.

How should i structure my essays for the best possible mark? (the basic layout, the amount of analysis and explanation etc.)

What do you have to demonstrate in your answers in order to achieve an A at AS and A* at A level?

Has anyone got any tips for achieving highly in A level History ?
