    General Thoughts: Modern History

    I don't know. i almost did the same thing. i spent heaps of time talking about source D, and then realised that it said source B and C so hopefullythey'll accept the source D stuff as my own knowledge. i crossed out all the explicit reference to the source. you might get 1 or 2 marks but...
