i was wondering how many stats/ historiography are you memorising? does it have to be filled in each paragraph?
I'm gonna try and aim for like at least one piece of historiography in each paragraph - ideally i would do more but my goldfish memory can't handle it 🤣
also tbh it's so easy to make up a historian's quote on the spot so I'll probs do that too.

wbu?

do you know whether they could ask a question directly from the survey for the essay modules?


@MalaMark04 @iwanttodogoodinschool
In the old syllabus, some of the dotpoints from the survey were asked as essays that's why u might've seen them asked as questions. But NESA specified that for the new syllabus the Essays are ONLY from the focus of study and key features. So u can disregard the survey (that's what I'm doing).

TLDR; No, essays are just from Focus of Study and Key Features.

It's not really needed in every essay; stats, facts and evidence is more important. But I'd say 1 piece of historiography is good per essay.

ahah i don't think that's enough. i reckon one piece in each paragraph is essential, especially for those questions where you can't use statss.

hmmm my teacher would say one aswell as it takes away from the 'personal opinion' i also recognised a pattern in the nesa standard materials most barely have it and when theres like three or two different ones the maker always criticizes that it was used to conceal the students lack of content knowledge which is confusing

YESS exactly, using a historian's perspective adds sophistication to your response and also sets u apart from other students
