and the access pin is the concealed 4 digit number we got in the mail right?

i cant seem to access the my results and on the example provided by boardofstudies it shows the student number as a 9 digit number. i was always under the impression my student number was the 8 digit number i used in the exams.. whats going on?

thats not true at all.. what you do is structure it via issues from the 5 key questions that are pertinent to the source, and in your analysis of the key issue, use different historians views to develop your analysis. eg. i used as my issues; The significance of identity in how history is...

are you being serious? the way you are supposed to structure the case study question is in order of the development of historical schools of thought. for example i do appeasement and you begin with Cato, Churchill and orthodox historians during the time without the availability of sufficient...

anyone not using barbara tuchman is letting themselves down. she is the greatest for providing a 'balanced' view in arguments like science vs art or relativism vs complete objectivity and have perfect quotes for clincher statements and conclusions. she is by far the most useful historian for...

fair enough, i basically said yes he did shape the period through his reforms but that "The launching of perestroika was not a personal whim of Gorbachev's but a natural result of the emergence of a new generation of leaders." (a quote by Christian) and that ultimately his policies were a...

you have margarat thatcher as your display picture.. neck yourself

its ridiculous picking watson.. i mean the guy is going well right now and yeh he may play better then hughes would of, but the fact remains hughes is the best up and coming batsman we have and you need to develop him, whilst watson is just injury-prone and sooner or later will get injured again...

dude, look at every single past paper for both english advanced and extension and clearly the questions for every single essay (apart from module b) are asking you to do the same thing - write an essay which shows how the texts relate to the concept of the module/AOS. If you have your own...

i completely disagree.. obviously for some subjects (histories especially) you have no notion of what the question might be, for english (apart from module b) it is always the same idea just worded differently.. all you do is memorise an essay and know that it covers all aspect of the text/s in...

Im thinking of using life of pi as one of my related texts for the AOS. just wondering, for anyone that has read the book, which section of it would you say is the most necessary in relation to the area of study. At first i was thinking the first section which accounts for his life before the...
