i thought the vietnam 16 marker was so boring. like the anti-war movement was such a limited topic out of the whole spec, plus i thought extract C barely backed up anything of Source and B

Hey, I hope you all found that the paper went well!I thought paper 1 was really good (germany + superpower relations) and USA for paper 2 was really good as well but I completely messed up china, especially the 16 marker. I know grade boundaries are not set, but do you think I could still get at least a 7?
