How can you study for the history sources paper? It doesnt say anything in my book about the spanish civil war and all the sites i go too give you irrelavant stuff.

hey! 
I'm doing the same paper on monday - history p2 o spanish civil war
my txt book is also useless for this so my teacher has given me notes on the war from encarta encyclopedia and wikipedia
basically i think the reasons of involvement of each country, the major events, magnitude of their involvement and the effect of the war on international relations should be enough for this since they're gonna give sources and ask you questions to analyse the sources..

if anybody has got any ideas share pleasee

hey does anyone have any suggestions for this paper... how to answer the last question (out of 12)

The last question is the easiest one. All you have to do is evaluate each source (including their reliability, provenance, etc.) and come up with an overall conclusion depending on the question.

CIE IGCSE History Paper 2 was awesome.
Probably because i did Option A: "Did Japan westernise itself uncrittically" or something like that.
But, it was definetly good.
At the last minute, I was browsing SchooHistory.co.uk's Teacher Forum, and this girl posted a link to
this.

I can't believe that this is what almost came.
The minor parts in Option B.
LMAO !
I wrote 5 papers for 6 questions.
When I finished, I wrote a note to the examiner.
That's okay right ??
I'm like
"May you please give me an A because I studied awesome for the 19th century core: The modernization of Japan during the Meiji Era. Thank you so much. "
I used good grammar.
Please pray for me and I'll pray for you.
Now, I just hope that whoever the examiner is, please do not be grammar-neatness freak.
=D

How'd did you guys go ?

Are you talking about the Edexcel History Paper (4380/2H)?
My teacher gave me a list of the topics that came in recent exams and are unlikely to come up again.

[Bavinmaestro]

sadly no i did the CIE paper and it is said to be harder than edexcel.

i wrote 8 and half sides, how about you guys

[Bavinmaestro]

8.5 wow ...... i only did 4.5, this isnt gd for me is it :S

[Kasa]

i wrote about 6 pages, i honestly thought there was not enough time. I was about to start on the last question and the teacher was like "5 minutes left!" and i didn't get it done and it was like the easiest question dam it! 

[Kasa]

it doesn't mean if you wrote a few pages then it's a bad thing, maybe you got all the points covered..
