OL History was as I was expecting it to be, SOOOOO EASY. Great paper!

HL History was grand too, one of the People in Histories I wasn't ready for but I still think I managed to write a page that wasn't full of nonsense, the rest was easier than I expected honestly

Don't have my book with me now but as far as I can remember Early Christian monasteries were more simple, they had round towers and beehive huts... the medieval ones were built of stone, run by abbotts and they did more work amongst the people...

at least that's what I wrote :P that was the question that caught me off guard haha, the other options in that selection were terrible too

Medieval monk would have been a member of an order - Dominicans, Franciscans, Benedictines etc.
Medieval monks had tonsures
Medieval engaged more with the community - ran schools etc.
Medieval monasteries were bigger and had different buildings

I predicted the people in history so I had them two sorted. Question 5 blew me off. I hate the industrial revolution and I did not know ANY of those names they gave us.
Everything else was grand. Predicted Question 6 and the documents were nice.

Thought the European accounts were horrible.Only did BoB in class,and had just learned France from past papers,so don't know what others would have done.The Irish history ones were lovely though,I thought.

I felt comfortable with those accounts because the French one didn't seem that bad and I've read loads about the War in the Pacific since I find it really interesting and the Reformation question was great for me since I did that in my mocks and all my other exams since 2nd Year :P
