We were in the same situation, exam we spent about 6 weeks on the Persian Wars before our teacher remembered about the rest of the syllabus.

The only reason I wrote a ton of info for Section 2 was that I was taught 2 facts for every mark. So for a 12 mark question, I needed 24 facts backed by evidence (historians, primary sources, etc.) Although in hindsight, I think my teacher may have taught what my Mod. teacher calls...

Mate, this 'Hicksville' is currently the largest growing area in NSW. I'm crap at history? Firewood is still used champ, even in the hole you refer to as 'Sydney'. I used to live in Sydney and I'm glad I got out, as it is too big and too busy for my liking. I visited it recently and it took...

Let's play a game...spot the tool...

I put too much effort into my project to allow me to put it up. I also got a crap mark for it. Also, the fact that I deleted it off my computer and chucked it in the bin when I saw my marks plays a major part in my decision not to put it up.

cegga du se du breu! Ark! Neeeur Neeur wha! PHTANG! PHTANG!

I was banking on totalitarianism too, but upon closer inspection, I was able to twist most of my tot. knowledge to the Jewish question. The rise of Hitler question could also have been done if u studied Weimar.

I was one of those sad people who expected 1 Cambodia question, but all my base are belong to me and I was able to take on the tactics question in record style. Finished with 3 secs on the clock. *head wobble*

Man, I love posts like this, it gives me a chance to vent a bit. My school is one of the best in the state, and i stopped 3mins before the end of the exam, and I reckon I'll be lucky to break 90% But if you did it in less then 1 1/2 hours, and ur gonna get band 6, keep dreaming. Ur...

Despite the fact I type my exams, I had a look at the answer booklet for Seciton 2, and I agree it was pretty bad. I did a truckload for answers c, d and e and the answer booklet would not have covered all my needs for that.

I loved the Persian Wars question, because that's what we spent 5 weeks on in class. The questions in Section 4 were crap, though.

i blitzed everything bar Section 4, Question 58a. Bloody hell, the two bits of Rome I didn't study!

I just spoke about women in the war...

I hate it how they try to fit a 3 hours exam in a 2 hour time space:mad: Ah well, so I ran out of time on the last section, what are you gonna do about it?

Were you able to do the feature article in Section III?

Aye, very true indeed. Me thinks that both sides have distorted the matter, and we can continue this argument forever.

The Cicada poem - what was the go with that? Speaking of left-field questions, the feature article. WHYOHWHYOHWHY couldn't the BOS given us some sort of indication they could do that? Luckily I'm good at feature articles, and I was able to cover my bases.

I wish the syllabus wasn't so vague on what subject areas we're meant to cover. I was well versed on food and on greeting people, not rock concerts and housing! Ah well, you get that when you pick languages!

an idea for what part of Hist. Ext?

I believe Riefenstahl's side of things too, I just reckon Goebbels tried to chat her up, but she rejected him, so he set out to get at her. Hence all the contradictions in their respective diaries.
