Tbh ur probs right, I didn’t spend much time on it but I love religious history so it was my comfort zone. I didn’t really talk about anything from the bible those sentences just had to be after each other. I did say like oh maybe the values are based on bible stories and therefore that’s why it’s a myth, felt a lot like a parable

Fair enough. What matters is historical perception and coverage is only a fraction of the marks so if you wrote well on it, that's great. Aaaah but I forgot to write about the fact it was a mythology; that is a massive blunder.

Maybe UCL or Warwick. I don't really know which one I'd choose.

I did it in my school because there were like 10 other people taking it with me.

Nice. I wanted to do joint list but the acceptance rates are so low. 11 % :frown:. I swear our parents had it lucky because for them, if they wanted to apply, the rates were more like 40-50%

How did people find the Oxford HAT today? I thought difficulty-wise it was okay, but I am not at all confident in my response; would have much rather taken last year's paper, that was significantly easier during revision.

Pretty eh, although having a bit of a confidence failure reading these responses haha. I spoke about respect and care from leaders as a desired characteristic, the need for a judicious decision maker as a characteristic and then analysed what they wanted to be determined as like priorities, and then the motif of food and agriculture throughout and how the responsibility for delivering that was on the King. not feeling super confident about it but just happy it’s done haha

Before the HAT was created... coincidence?
