Hi @DumbDumb3000,

I studied Edexcel A-Level History of Art through the NEC and mostly relied on the mark schemes to give me an idea of how to answer the essay questions. Smarthistory was also a useful resource - it covered all the themes and periods on the specification and highlighted what was most important to discuss about each piece. There may be some sample responses available online which could help, but the limited amount of resources does unfortunately make it difficult.

Best of luck with History of Art,
