I went in crying because i thought i was gonna completely fail. For the whole first hour i had a voice in my head telling me i was gonna fail and to just get up and leave. BUT i didn't, i kept pushing i wanted to prove to myself im not a quitter. It went ok in the end, i haven't got the grade i needed for my uni (B) but on the whole it was so much better than i thought it would be. It went the best it could have gone for me and i'm happy i didnt give up and i tried to the end. :')


awhh proud of u for pushing through<3

Yeh i thought it was great tbf especially that source it was beautiful

Yeh the source had so much to write about. I did the america question which was pretty good and the patterns of trade one which I don’t think was amazing

31 (tudors): pretty good source my friends and I predicted Ketts so I was super happy. I chose church-state and Tyrone’s rebellion for the other 2 qs and I think I did decent. ITS FINALLY OVER :biggrin:

I found the witchcraft paper actually quite good! I thought the questions were really nice and I liked the source question on Salem I thought there was a lot of own knowledge to pick up on how did you find it?

Same here I found it really good and I chose the east anglia one over bamberg 😂 and I also chose harsnett too but overall it was the best history paper I wasn’t expecting it to be cuz we only really had like 3 days to revise between paper 2 and 3 but it was pleasantly surprising

What did u say for the trade one

Reply 231

yeah, my biggest issue with history is timing so i hope i don't get knocked off too many marks for missing a conclusion because I've done it on at least 1 essay per paper.. and i only started revising witchcraze yesterday currently on 2 hours sleep hahaha but overall went good, wayyyyy better than paper 2 for me

Dw I’m sure it won’t affect your overall mark too much if anything as long as the thread of ur essay and the overall argument is clear then I’m sure it will be fine :smile: I’m just glad history is officially over and I don’t have to look at my notes again lol

I thought WSPU went okay. The radical reformers question and parliamentary democracy were great though

What did u say for the trade one

For trade i did para on india (obv), second para on suez and third para on implementation of free trade and said india was the least significant with free trade being most significant for changing patterns of trade

I did the same except i did abolishment of slavery in 1807 instead of suez so I could get the whole time period in

I did it! Wasn't the worst paper and I felt confident in the Salem question but think i could have added more about belied of the devil (The Book of witches particularly). I did East Anglia and the question about understanding the universe.
