Not much, but my teacher said the AS paper asked both essay questions on Henry VIII, so it's possible they could do the same for the a level, or do both questions on Henry VII. She also said both questions were specific with dates, so be careful of the timeframes of the question

I sat last year's paper - both questions were on Henry VIII - the one I answered compared foreign policy before and after 1529. The Source question was Mary and the burnings/catholicity, so I would focus revision on Henry VII and Edward. I think this paper is quite hard to predict.

It's a website that the other user has been advertising across The Student Room over the past few days (not allowed to in our guidelines though).

This late into the term you are best sticking to methods you already use rather than trying new websites and having to set up accounts / potentially pay for stuff.

does anyone have any good revision techniques that summarise the information?

Get someone at home to test you on your key dates etc.
When was the Poor Law Amendment Act?
What are the main consequences of the Great Reform Act?
Name 4 of the 6 Chartist principles.
Etc.

I do! I feel like its gonna be on Thatcher and Britain's role in the world, not sure which specific ones tho, and for sources it could be Churchill as a wartime leader

it is not very good tho I tweaked my politics ideas essay to not include any thinkers and it gave me 22/24. My teacher gave me 17/24 with thinkers in the essay! I then asked ChatGPT to write a generic essay on "to what extent do feminists agree on the economy?" It was a horrible essay very descriptive, with zero key thinkers. I put it into Tilf and gave it 23/24! AI is not very good at marking anyway as it tends to overdo it and be very generous.

It will be a tough week of revising, but I'm feeling pretty good about the exams so far. I had Further Maths on Monday and Maths today in the afternoon, and I still have Politics on Wednesday and History on Friday. Feeling pretty good about this History exam as I have some float time after politics lol. Cannot wait to be finished with exams on the 20th!
