Yeah, but what that's kind of what I meant - you won't find many questions which directly state "Marie Antoinette" in them, because I don't think she's mentioned in the study design. Sieyes, Louis XVI or even the royal family perhaps, but generally not her. Still, it's good to be prepared for everything!

We are currently about one third of the way through Area of Study 2, about to begin on the Terror.

Our Area of Study 1 Sac was a visual analysis. I only got an A I was kind of disappointed =[ Ha.

Well, we had a Part 2 (which wasn't really part of the SAC but kind of was) that were short answers about Sieyes, Tennis Court Oath, etc.

I'm not complaining, it was the same SAC as last year

WOW it feels good to be over the French. just started russian

i.am.amanda · 23 Jun 2009, 12:44 PM

Same. I'm so glad French is finally over...it seems to have gone forever.

i.am.amanda · 16 Jul 2009, 7:31 PM

Started Russia. I like it better than French, it seems simpler and easier.

Finished 3rd SAC and Area of Study 1 for the American Revolution. 4th and final SAC in a few weeks!

We're almost there guys!

chansthename · 31 Jul 2009, 6:26 PM

3rd SAC next week for Russia, I actually am finding that I like French more than Russia, russia has too much politics for my liking

i.am.amanda · 30 Sep 2009, 7:16 PM

Exam revision time. Decided that I like France more than Russia after all

I've given up on History.

Been pulling 5-8 hour study days, but I've only been working on my other 4 subjects. My crappy teacher killed what interest I had in this subject, so I'll let it drift to the bottom 2.

I have pretty good English skills and remember lots of random shiz, so hopefully I can pull a 30 or above with little-no work.

chansthename · 9 Oct 2009, 1:40 PM

^^ lol, I have just been drifting all year but maybe I should actually do revision, i have forgotten all the French stuff now.

We have just finished everything and are just doing revision now

Hanakiri · 1 Nov 2009, 12:36 AM

Russian/American here. I'm feeling 'ok' but I know I have a hella long way to go with revision. Right now we're still holding History class just for revision. So, hopefully we're getting more of an edge.

Can't wait to get the exam over with, but dreading it none the less. What percent do we have to score in the History exam to knock a 40+?

pineapplebaby · 1 Nov 2009, 11:05 AM

to ^

depends on the difficulty of the exam. But usually i'd say above 90%.

moshi · 6 Nov 2009, 9:28 PM

Cutoff last year was 130/160, or 65/80. That's what the top 10% of students scored - hence, you'd need slightly higher than that to get over 40, since over 40 is top 8 or 9%.

i.am.amanda · 11 Nov 2009, 4:41 PM

Yay that's what I've been getting on practise exams with my lack of detailed knowledge!
