History Edexcel A level Britain Transformed and USA Conformity and Challenge

Hi everyone! I was just wondering if anyone had any tips for how to revise for History because I am struggling to get my head around all of the content. Also, does anybody know the full question about 'class' from last year's Britain paper? Thank you very much.

Hi there!
I took this module last year and received an A* so hopefully my advice is valid! I found studying History seriously hard, so don’t beat yourself up if you get frustrated, tired, angry or just generally want to give up because I know I did several times.
To revise facts, stats and dates I put everything into Quizlet and used the test function over and over to ensure my knowledge was solid.
I would also do a “spin the wheel” of all the topics say from Britain Transformed: Economics, Thatcher Rolling back state etc and time myself 10 minutes to blurt as much as I can on the topic on a whiteboard or sheet of paper.
I went through the textbook and copied out all of the practice questions, printing and scanning the sources but you don’t have to, and planned and timed.
I literally wrote over 50+ practice papers for History in the final months out of pure stress of timing and just generally not being able to recall a lot. This was really good though as when I was in the exam my hand just knew what to do and was writing before I knew it—making me very calm and confident. So much so I finished super early and was perhaps writing too many pages by the end.
Also, if you’re interested I have a page on Etsy under Tulipstudies where I sell my sort of condensed notes for these topics if you’re interested in that 🙂
Regarding the class question, the full question I believe was:
How accurate is it to say that, in the years 1918-51, the class structure of British Society underwent significant change?
I got 19/20 and spoke about the decline in aristocrats after ww1, then rationing and how classes were conflated under ww2 provisions, and then the subsequent rise in affluence with growing consumerism.
I hope this is useful 🙂

Omg this has been so incredibly helpful - thank you so much for taking the time to write! I will now have a go at all these methods as I'm in a bit of a slump with finding History rather overwhelming! I cannot thank you enough again - I really appreciate it.

Thank you for your lovely private message and I’m glad you have found it helpful! I can’t reply privately because my account is too new but in terms of paper 2 help my notes weren’t any good! But I have made quizlets on them which you can use hopefully via this link: https://quizlet.com/tulipstudies/folders/paper-2?i=4pzq4d&x=1xqY.
Thank you again! and best of luck with your studies you can do it, not long left now 🙂
