STUDY TIPS

BEFORE THE EXAM DAY

Do not miss ANY days of school. If you are unwell, come to school to write your exam and then go home. Then you will be able to see how well you know your work and teachers can help you, before the exams, in areas where you are not sure.

Make sure that you have all the notes given in class and that all your assignments are completed. Class work is always added to the exam mark to make your term mark – and it is usually worth as much, if not more, than the exam mark.

At the College you only need to come to school on the days that you have an exam. You must make sure that you use your time at home well:

study at set times of the day- ask people to test you, make notes, summarise, practise labelling diagrams and maps – be active in your learning - don’t just read over your work

eat healthy snacks. exercise every day. go to bed at a sensible time

ON THE EXAM DAY

You need to arrive for exams at 08h20 latest. You will normally be asked to enter the exam venue at 08h30. There is also 10 minutes of reading time before the exam begins.

If you are not being collected immediately after the exam, then study in the library. For security reasons you are not allowed to walk to the shops.

Bring a book to read. Exams involve a lot of waiting around. Dress in FULL school uniform. Bring all the required stationery and a spare pen. CHECK if you need calculators

or glue etc Wear a watch – you are NOT allowed to have a cell phone on your desk to check

the time.

DURING THE EXAM

Use the 10 minute reading time at the start to read through all the exam questions. Be sure to follow the instructions given for each question. Note how many marks a question is worth so that you know what depth of

answer (how many points) to give. Number your questions EXACTLY as they are numbered on the exam paper. Do NOT use Tippex Simply cross out neatly and rewrite. Don’t sit gloomily on one question which you can’t do - leave a space and move on

– come back to it at the end. If you have time, review and check ALL your answers.

Types of questionsSECTION A – SINGLE SOURCE ANALYSIS (3X20) 60 MARKS

Three questions will be set across at least two of the set themes. Each question will focus on an analysis of a single source.

The format of these three questions will take the following form:1x visual analysis1x textual analysis1x media analysis

The questions require a broad historical understanding, but will also focus on specific historical skills, such as analysis, evaluation of written and visual sources, as well as engaging with issues of reliability and usefulness.

ALL three questions must be answered.

SECTION B – SOURCE BASED QUESTIONS (90 MARKS)

One set of questions based on a range of different sources from one or more of the three prescribed themes. Most of the questions will require lower order cognitive skills, such as knowledge and comprehension.

SECTION C – SOURCE BASED ESSAY (50 MARKS)

The source-based essay will develop from the source-based questions in Section B.

Tips for students in preparation for the exam Pay close attention to the consolidation of the contexts, the concepts and the

content. Create timelines in order to identify the interconnectedness between the themes. Create a glossary of terms and continue to build on this as you study each com-

ponent. Work closely with all sources in the typed notes and text book and complete all

activities in the text book. Pay attention to skill applications, especially with reference to analysis, interpre-

tation and construction of arguments and counter- arguments Consolidate the skills required for the evaluation of sources with reference to ori-

gin, purpose, value and limitations. Work through past tests and exams, pay attention to memos. Give careful consideration to time management on this paper. Ensure you have a

clearly defined strategy in order to complete Section B within the specified time. Remember to start with Section B, move on to Section C and then complete Sec-

tion A. Pay attention to the criteria presented in the rubric for the source-based essay

and remember to develop an argument and counter-argument. Even though this is a source-based, skills focused exam, it is essential that all

content is consolidated.
