Jan. 17th, 2007 03:56 pmSo, medeival history exam tomorrow. This is automatically going to be less of a bastard, because I actually like medieval history and looking over my revision, I actually know stuff. I've looked at the past papers and I can formulate answers to... well... not all the questions, but I'm good on the Conquest, the Angevins, the Vikings, and I can also cobble together an answer on Magna Carta and on Description of Wales. Well. I need to re-read both of them and go over my notes a few more times just to consolidate my knowledge of such things. And I hope they don't want pesky things like a lot of dates, although my tutor said if you just threw in one or two here and there, you'd be fine. I really hope they don't want a lot of specific examples from the texts in the exam - I can't remember stuff to that detail!
See, this is hard because I'm not sure, exactly, what standard they're after here. May exams are easier because you have a ball-park idea of what they're after. Now... less so. Still, I can only try my best abnd pray for over an 11. Emphasis on the praying, because holy hell, modern history was a BAD exam.
Anyway. I should stop farting around on elljay and get on with doing the 'working' thing. Leftovers for tea tonight and then back to re-reading and Hoping For The Best.
Argh Sarah is in Glasgow and has TAKEN MY TWEEZERS WITH HER. Fuck. Now I have to tear my room apart to try and find the ones I lost two weeks ago...
