edward iv's first reign (1461-70) is the only period of rule that has never come up on the 30 marker if that helps? aqa are definitely up for repeating concepts though so dont take this as its all you should revise though hahah x

Wow that's bad luck, what was your first paper. Mine was America and thankfully each question I had predicted but sadly the source one was awful

I’m so stresseddd but I think possibly an essay to do with bosworth and could either be how it was decisive in Richard III’s downfall or in Henry VII coming to power

The sources were on Buckingham rebellion last year and there was an essay on Perkin Warbeck/ Henry's foreign policy so I'm neglecting them

Yes it was about whether Henry’s foreign policy was the main reason Perkin Warbeck was defeated, no problem!!

i thought the sources were rough, especially cause it was specifically asking for the position of the lancastrians but source a was all about york.
i did 1 and 2 of the 25 markers, the richard iii question was divine
