Lol. Does that mean they use the marks of your best one?

Punic wars was awesome, the question was perfect, very similar to the trial and an assesment task.

Did you do, or even look at past papers? I did the themistocles section of 500-440 greek world. was easy

Allisonius · 26 Oct 2009, 5:45 PM

I did question B on the Greek World 500-440 BC, was really easy for me

Do you think 5 cources was enough to mention though? :s

I did Egypt New kingdom to the death of Thut IV. Answered question a) on Nubia. Overall view on the exam. Startling at first, but after applying knowledge, very very simple test. Hope i get 90+ after all, its my best subject.

I was pretty happy with the Fall of the Roman Republic. But the questions seemed quite vague and open to me.

I agree, Themistocles question was quite good - I just ran out of time and didnt get to finish my Xerxes 15 mark response

sigh... Julio-Claudians. I ignored my instinctives to study Nero, instead studied the senate and other emperors.. had to pull my mind out to shift though ANY remnant that i studied for in trials. thats right. its been that long. did only 3 pages.. i didnt write much for the essays.. how much did everyone write? how much are you supposed to write?

I used the whole booklet for the Greek world. For personalities i used about 5-6 pages

I did Greek World 500-440
I was crossing my fingers for a good Persian Wars question because I had no idea about the Delian League, and I got one.
I wrote about development of the navy, tactics, bribery, blackmail, how the navy stopped the Persian supply etc.
