hahah that is true, i had done that all properly :/ but nothing can beat Treaty of Versailles and Hitlers foreign policy .. the questions were pretty straight forward!

to be honest they were kinda straightforward , although i had some trouble in that foreign affairs question though.

SUSHI!! finally found you!, why did you quit facebook? anyway i did the variant 12 paper too. I did questioin 5, 6 and 9. The only tricky bit was the question about spanish civil war. i didn't expect that to come up. Otherwise it was quite easy, on hitlers carefull planning and if the tofV was fair or not.....What about you?

I did question 5,6 and 10.
The spanish civil war question sucked...i think i got like 3 or 4...treaty of versailles i think i got like 17 or 18 and the depth study i think i got 15 or 16...not my best history paper but probably just about an A

i did variant 2 .. chose 5, 7 ,9

I think i got around 16 at the t of v, around 13 at the spanish one and 16/17 at germany depth study....But did you know that in the precedent years, for an a* on that paper you needed more than 44-45/60? a* is still achievable if we do well on the other papers. And which subjects are you expecting an a*? for me, maybe history, french, english lit and sciences ( the teacher is amazing).

i think its the first league of nations source paper, so no past paper.... :'(

 

[Dinuka Malith]

don't think pastpapers will help , just try practising analysing cartoons and finding AS MUCH EXTRA info you can

 

[WhiteAngel]

Hey guyz any idea on how to prepare for paper 2 .
the topic is on the league of nations right ?!

 

[Mrsushinator]

I know all the information of the league of nations but on the paper 2 there are a lot of mark for analysis so i wanted to see how mark schemes awarded the marks... maybe other GCSE boards have league of nations papers.

 

[Dinuka Malith]

i finished mine in 10 minutes

lol geography **** want to be part of history..

 

[Dinuka Malith]

10 minutes...
Looks like someone is gonna get a good grade (...)

he's not , he's in my school and he takes geog
his subject sucks so he's trying to butt into ours

 

[MaMaz GirL]

to be honest it was BROVOSKY!!!!!!! PHEW the paper was lovely hoping for an A* but pp2 killed lil bit

 

[Dinuka Malith]

If anyone did Russia depth study the question on the Tsar really odd, the seven mark and eight mark were practically the same just a couple of adjustments. For those of you who don't do it, what did you write for the Hitler 8 mark question ? I was lucky i had prepared it since it came in 2002

Yeap do you know the answer for it? I wrote stuff about Hitlers Men Kampf and how he planned to take over and get to power , I also wrote that he was an opportunist and took the next logical move when he was represented the opportunity to do it , I also wrote that appeasement helped him and he was a gambler , is it correct?
