Absolutely not.

First question was pretty free

i left it blank i shouldve at least made something up

did u leave the whole section blank?

 

[The Castle]

i didnt even bother to read that question properly when i saw cambodia and laos

It was okay if you knew Cambodia and Laos in detail but you needed to piece together some pretty tricky analysis and arguments

did u leave the whole section blank?

i did and i regret it sm now
basically i said growth of communist party -> by 1939 the party was full of ppl loyal to Stalin -> allowed him to enforce certian political transformations to erase all oppositions and dissent (eg. through terror, gulags, show trials) -> but ultimately political transformations were not completely fulfilled because of very large size of ussr (so rural areas still not fully influenced by stalin + certain ethnic groups would not carry out stalin's orders due to non-soviet ppl outnumbering party officials sent there) + growing discontent of the public due to living standards
but i think my argument and progression didnt make sense at all

Catastrophic error yes per line

how did u answer the apartheid q's? nothing i studied for came up so i was wondering what arguments we needed to make

oh my god you do apartheid!
You know the 8 marker i talked about how mandela's imprisonement / rivonia trial increased international awarness thus recognition for apartheid, and also paved way for biko's BCM. but do u think the first part answers question since it said national reisstance (i only realised at the end!)

For security forces i said terrorism act allowed them to detain without trial and cross border raid
idk about 12 marker (said poltical was also important)

 

[questionasking]

was anyone else lost on civil rights question 1? like i thought they just went to school i didnt know there were organisations

Yeah that was very narrow there basically was only one answer which was the national association for the advancement of coloured people (NAACP). They organised the whole thing and picked out the Little Rock Nine etc

 

[Snoopy:)]

Omgggg i ran out of time for the last apartheid question (((
I got to my second point and the time ran out
Should have dot pointed fr

stop i also did that for the 8 marker i just added at the end how international response prompted more active movement within south africa so hopefully that'll suffice
but yeah everyone else seems to hv talked specifically ab national resistance

i didnt actually prepare for security forces so just talked ab how ppl were forcefully relocated to bantustans and how police forces? would ensure everyone had reference books on them or they would use violence to punish (dunno if that was correct)

for 12 marker i didnt finish but said something along the lines of economical + social deterioration led to formation of democracy?
dyk how we were supposed to include the source tho

 

[aerithgainsborough]

FUCKKK THAT WAS BAD AHHHH

i finish 20 mins early that has never happened to me before in trials i was scrambling last minute

i wrote approx between 5-6 for each one pp
