Civil rights A level OCR paper 1

Anyone doing civil rights for history a levels ?

I am! My school split up our OCR course into doing units 1 and 2 in year 12 and the CR unit in year 13, so we've only got about a weeks worth of content left.
My teacher is convinced that the interpretations question will be the new deal and NA. The other units we do are England 1445-1509 and International relations 1890-1941 (aka the unit from HELL)

yoo any idea on what england 1445-1509 may be on for either section a or b? im taking that module too❤️🙏

omg no way! honestly section A i have no idea but the 2024 one was AWFUL we sat it for our mocks - so i'm hoping it'll be a bit nicer for us
as for section B I am PRAYING for a henry vii foreign policy question
the options in the 2024 paper were on henry vii's domestic policy and edward iv's control of the nobility in his 2nd reign

yess i think it will be smthn on foreign policy too potentially if so then im happy!! i feel like section B essays are quite plannable? Section A is the more scary part

yeah I agree, though it's quite nice that it's split up into 1445-1461 and 1461-1509 for section A/B
for foreign policy essays - do you prefer to write them more focused on stages of foreign policy or aims or relations with different countries generally? I've been experimenting a bit with using the 3 phases of foreign policy and trying to weave that in more with fp essays for henry vii

ibe been doing it by aims so trade, security and dynasty moreso than chronologically

both ways of doing it are reasonable and I always find the nice thing about essay subjects is that you can still maintain your own sort of writing style
good luck with your revision! and with exams of course cos they are creeping up on us a little too quick

Hey totally agree that IR is the unit from hell!!

there's so little online for it and I swear no-one else does it ☹️ I cannot wait to be done with it
too much content for only 15% of the grade is evil

So evil!! The textbook is bad, the unit is bad, the percentage its worth is bad. My teacher was bad 😔

could not agree more with you about the TEXTBOOK omds
my teacher was great but even she agreed that everything about IR sucks - my school has changed that unit to Italy for year 12s and I'm so jealous because it looks so much nicer

Yes so real, THEY NEED TO GET RID OF IT.
Thank goodness they changed it I wish they did so for us, I've seen the new year 12s with the textbook and I'm like oooo you're gonna have so much funnn

they're absolutely in for it bless them
I'm really banking on there being a question on appeasement this year, have you got any predictions/hopes for the exam before our dreams are crushed on June 12th?

Ahh it cut me off,
...War lasted so long
And then 20 marker maybe on why war began
Just the basics really

I think a 10 on new technology vs tactics in WW1 could be quite a nice question but it could literally be anything - good luck revising!
