This is for q1 -- you only study four? so one per paragraph?
who are they? Just asking because I'm; not sure if I should study like the twenty historians + debates + issues for q1 I have now or just keep it simpler.

Besides, Ext is not really a predictable subject BUT, for q2, I am vibing something method related because they haven't asked about it in a while. So it obviously depends on the cause study you do.
I have a few historian quotes, (Ranke, Carr, Jenkins & Hill) and some contemporary issues and some examples of popular history

GOOD LUCK FOR TOMORROW! I'm doing some last minute readings :)
Easy Q1, easier than my trial. Sources were nice and short and simple. Question 2 was good too --- thankful for the one area of debate.
Btw, I would have the paper and I would scan and upload it, but I've stolen it too may times and the supervises caught me.

I agree but I’m not sure if I “cooked” my arguments to an E4 level. I’m hoping I did for both. Did 10 pages for Q1 and 8 for Q2 but, couldn’t finish my last sentence for the former ;(

delightful exam. i was thrilled. so thrilled with my q2 that i had to get two extra booklets. not thrilled that it cut into my q1 time and my third paragraph paid for it. how did u guys structure q1? i did past present future like past = revisionism, role of the historian is to manage changing interpretations, present = engaging contemporary audience with history through narratives and future = educating future historians to be critical thinkers, history is entering mediums directed towards the youth eg video games

Yes, an E4 would be lovely. Or perhaps a State Ranke? I DID the same amount of booklets! and ran out of time for the last sentence too!!!

Well, I did it for ancient and modern, and my year advisor seemed to think that it was ok. But then I did it for art yesterday, and I think the Presiding officer realised and then asked me during today's exam to return the art booklet. And was standing right next to me when I was finishing off the exam. today --- watched like a hawk.

No, but in reality that will say they "lost my paper" and that will be my punishment.....

Oof sorry to hear that :(. But I guess when on the booklets it says “DO NOT TAKE OUT OF EXAM HALL”, then can’t really say much.

Exactly silly me... Back in the 90s my dad took them and he still has them upstairs! I thought I would continue the family legacy.
