Honestly, I wasn’t so tripped up about the explain why Scots had an impact because it was vague so we could pull up any example from any country. Think I ended up doing 2 from each country. I was more concerned about the 2source asking about Scots reactions to the Irish. My teacher made up do every single past paper we could find before our prelim and I had never seen a question as specific as that! I’m lucky that I think I remembered enough recall, but I’m surprised no one is talking about how evil that question was. Or maybe it was just me!

I think the explain question was definitely about Scots having an impact on the Empire so asking about our contribution to Australia, Canada, NZ and India and there was a 2source about Scots reactions to the Irish. If I were you I honestly wouldn’t worry about how you answered the question as the exam is over, it’ll just make you worry even more, I’m sure you did your best 🙂
