CAIE History A Level

Hi, I've seen on the CAIE website as well as from my own searches that there aren't any Cambridge International endorsed textbooks for A Level history. This presents quite a challenge to someone like myself who is not enrolled with any learning centre nor receiving any other tutorage. I think as a Private candidate the CAIE A levels are ideal, obviously without a text book for half of the history course I would be inclined to re-evaluate. Please, if anyone could point me in the direction of resources or textbooks or just solutions to this dilemma it'd be very appreciated. :smile:

Hello - the recommended texts for A2 History should be available in the Schemes of Work for Paper 3 and Paper 4 in this link: https://papers.gceguide.com/A%20Levels/History%20(9489)/Other%20Resources/

Hi, you can also find notes from other students who've done A2. In stuvia, for example, if you search the topic of A2 you pick and also write CAIE A2 history you should be able to find many. Sometimes you can also see the grade the student got with those notes which is really good. There's also a new website that has very simplified notes called tutorchase but it's good as an introduction to topics.
Here for example are some notes from Stuvia for the holocaust
