No, leave them as they are. You have well over the required amount and you will have plenty of time in History. Don't stress yourself by trying to edit them now.

Would it be worth it to do more than one question when there is a choice?

If you've finished the rest of the paper and have time, but unless you've made a bags of one question it's not necessary.

Hopefully you'll be okay.

Is the Berlin Blockade enough to learn or should I learn the Cuban Missile Crisi just to be on the safe side. Really trying to filter out the unimportant stuff and prioritise what is important at the moment.

Yeah, they usually ask all 3 and write an account on one, but it would hurt to look over the Cuban missile crisis to be sure !

Our teacher recommended we learn two because in 2011 there was only a choice between two and you don't want to be caught out if the Berlin Blockade doesn't appear...:)

In most cases, you can divide chapters up in to sections, the three C's, Causes, Course, and Consequence. It's a handy tip to have if you want to structure your notes etc. So when you're finished a chapter ask yourself, "Do I know why it happened?", "Do I know what happened?", "Do I know the aftermath of what happened?". If you can answer all three of these questions with some detail, you're doing very well for yourself! Good luck to all

I have had a riddiculously bad history teacher the past 3 years. I have done my best these years trying to cover the course as much as I can myself. After stressing out all evening im giving up and retiring to some hot chocolate. Lads just give everything your best shot and BSing will get us through the rest of it. Best of luck to everyone and anyhow tis only the junior cert....

Does anybody have essays for Revolutions on Q.5? E.g. Causes of the French Revolution, causes of 1798 rebellion, impact of American or French Revolution on Ireland, reasons for failure of 1798 rebellion and consequences of the 1798 rebellion?

I only know causes of the American revolution and the terror during the French Revolution. How many more of the above should I learn? And essays would be greatly appreciated!

I won't be getting any A in History because what I studied only accounted for 52 marks in accounts (2 PiH, Crisis)
