French Revolution and Napoleon OCR a-level history

What were the 20 markers from last year?? I know they are unlikely to come up again but good for last min essay plans

I believe my teacher said that our mocks were last year's questions so if that's true then they were:

How important were the Enlightenment and American revolution in bringing about revolution in France?
To what extent was Napoleon's empire in France a police state? (honestly this is such a strange question and there's barely anything about it in the textbook, I'm surprised it was official)

I'm not sure about the exact 20 marker questions from last year, but it's a great idea to prepare with those as practice. Does anyone else remember last year's 20 marker topics or has any tips on making solid last-minute essay plans?

Ngl those questions were horrible. Did manage to barely get the questions done but one of those 20 markers was definitely more suited to a 10 mark question.

The fall of Napoleon 10 marker was paired with: "To what extent was Napoleon’s Empire in France a police state?" and the fall of Robespierre question was paired with: "How important were the ideas of the Enlightenment and American Revolution in bringing about the French Revolution?"

Tbh, I don't really think it's that important that you do the questions exactly how they were on the paper.
