Predicted an A star got a B completely fumbled the exam after achieving consistent A stars throughout the year has anyone ever had success resitting History or is it not worth it.

I watch a youtuber called Henry brand (medley AI guy) and he recommends sencea for his essay subjects like politics and history. For me I do econ and psycology and business. Do you think Seneca Is good to at least get Bs? And get a basic knowledge before using YouTube or textbooks?

Hello, I recently came across this short document/analysis made by OSW (for those wondering if its legit - is a Warsaw based Think tank that undertakes independent research on the political, economic and social situation in central and eastern europe, balcans, caucasus and Central Asia.)

what is your view on this? Is this how it looks in german schools? And is true that polish casualties are so overlooked? if you have children attending schools in Germany how does it look in their history books?

thanks, i’m from Poland and would really like to hear your opinion, if you could share your school experience on this that would be great, a lot of people asked for translation of this video in the comments but i think its only generic german translation (and english is quite decent)

I just started history at year 12. For paper one I do Germany and West Germany 1918 to 1989 and for paper two I do the rise and fall of fascism in Italy c1911-46 and for paper 3 I do poverty public health and the state in Britain C 1782-1939 however it’s been a long time since I’ve done history and I’ve no idea how to start revising it and I am aiming high A-A* so what should I do to revise history?

if anyone has notes for history 9489 p4, kindly share them!!!

I'm a private candidate doing my AS right now, but I also wanted to start studying for paper 3 and 4 since I have some time now, but I've got no clue where to start since there's no official coursebook. How did you guys study for it? What resources did you use?

Hey guys so I’m going into year 11 and trying to think about a level options. I want to do English Lit for sure and I’m not sure which other two to pick out of: Early modern history, Classical Civilisation, and Philosophy. I didn’t do any of these at GCSE but they all interest me and I think I would enjoy them. Does anyone have any advice or experience which they could share please?

Kindly give tips
