Julie Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Any notes are in the Files section.Study like you normally do, but make sure you are looking for arguments, making connections, not just learning stuff as a narrative. When you are studying, thing of essay questions you could form out of the material. For wars, there are always questions on either: causes, practices or effects. Now think of questions related to those three that could possible appear. For instance, strengths and weaknesses of the effects of some war (that was a really badly formed example, but yeah, you get it right?).Usually I go through my texts, make notes and go back through my notes and make arguments for things, and I highlight them so when I'm studying I immediately know it's an argument I should keep in mind. Another major thing to do: find old exams. Practice those questions, because the questions are generally very similar, but don't count on them being TOO similar or the same. 3 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
