[@caitlinc-r2957]

I got an A* too and 100% agree about the timelines, after that I condensed all my class notes and made them neater (I did this on A4 paper and added doodles and colourful titles as I found flashcards too small). There were too many facts in my class notes to learn them all so condensing your notes is a good way to help decide a)what is most important and b)decide on random really specific examples which make it seem like you really know your shit (like memorising the name Reginald Ranfurly Plunckett Ernle Erle Drax at GCSE) because basically you can't know all the specific examples, you should aim to know enough that you can throw three or four into whatever essay comes up. Basically I think it's important to realise that trying to know every single last detail you've been taught is futile, a few specific dates and key names to spice up an essay is fine as long as you know the basic timeline and most important bits because you MUST remember that essays are argument led, not fact led

[@caitlinc-r2957]

And to clarify I don't mean don't learn facts, what I mean is that after you've got the most important details you're likely to have a lot of extra details you could learn and that's where you need to pick and choose because it's better to say, know the name of one of Stalin's ministers and what happened to steel production than it is to have tried to learn the specifics of all the industries and names of all the ministers and know none because you tried to cram too much in your head

[@jack_edwards]

10000% agree about condensing your notes - i personally chose to learn as many facts as i possibly could as my short term memory is pretty good so that really helped me!

[@caitlinc-r2957]

I guess different things work for different people, I just remember a lot of my peers struggling to remember facts and also focusing too much on that when it was the argument that really counted. In general I thought your revision tips were A+ though, it was a great video

[@ecstasy3692]

general tips: - highlight key facts - write what your teachers say - youtube videos - consider how different events affect different people revision: - make timelines (with significance on axis) - memorise key facts (flashcards) and compare these facts overtime - mindmaps (red = negatives blue = positives, compare how much of each) - make practice essay plans - flowcharts of events, brainstorm effects of that and that essay writing: - open intro with a hard fact - plan answer before writing in actual exam - keep linking every end of paragraph with your overall, nuanced argument and the question's argument - use evaluation words: more importantly, less significantly - after writing your essays underline your hard facts and your evaluation and notice what you're lacking - how an event affected different perspectives e.g. women, children, poc - stick to what you say - everything you say needs to be backed up - facts, statistics sources: - read it first, then go in with highlighters - provenance - always answer question

[@xzz._.3392]

for some people who need a summary/ have no time :-) - but also if possible, just watch the video because it is immensely helpful! ( i apologise if these are messy !) General Tips Colour-code notes (e.g. highlight headings, use coloured pens for stats, key widgets of information etc.) Use multiple different resources (teacher: would say things outside of the textbook, other textbooks: other than the core textbook class uses, videos on yt) Always consider different ways policies impact different people (consider how different events affect different people) Revision (don’t worry, sometimes revision could be the time for everything to fall into place; don’t panic !) Revision Methods Timelines mini timelines - e.g. impact on women in communist china whole timelines - e.g. all the impacts, key events) Time graph (one axis - power/control, other axes - timeline) Flashcards (one way to revise them:) Test yourself and set the ones you got correct into one pile (‘every other day pile’) to revise while the ones wrong are in the ‘everyday pile’ to be revised. If something is right, move up a pile and vice versa) Keep them with you, continuously go through Compare over time (e.g. tonnes of coal produced in 1953, 1962, 1971 and compare the figures inherently and compare; find a trend) Mindmap e.g. positives/advantages - in blue, negatives/disadvantages - in red (this makes you analyse the fact and sort them) !! Force yourself to evaluate and analyse even during revision !! Essay plans (think to yourself - what are 4 pts you can make about this??; prepare with essay questions) Flowchart of events (don’t worry about presentation, make a mindmap, write a key mindmap, write impacts and effects etc. on the spot to link all the events) Essay writing Open with one hard fact that’s impressive, paragraph on stated factor Plan your answers before writing (mini-essay plan and leave it there) Put what you think/your view on 2nd para Subsequent paras to link back to that qns, the nuances of your argument) Use words to bookmark points; ( e.g. 'more importantly', 'less significantly' - proves you are thinking analytically) Take two coloured pens and underline all your hard facts, the other with your analysis in your essay so you can realise what you are lacking) Think about different perspectives (how did they affect women, men, people, religion, government etc.) !! Stick to what you argue !! Back up everything you say (stats, person, place, event) Source-based question Read it through once, second, even third time and highlight key bits of information Tick the points you used off when you include them in your essay to know what you missed Provenance (e.g. date, who wrote it: is there a political agenda behind it? etc.) !! Link back at the end of every single paragraph !! E.g. ‘This was a significant factor because…’

Cannot stress enough about the "dont worry if you dont understand things" History can be taught thematically and it's not in time order, it's really confusing! But everything tends to click towards the end, so if you're keeping up with class work, don't be disheartened if things seem daunting or you feel you're lacking understanding! x

Another thing that might help is searching for mark schemes so you know exactly how the examiner will correct the exam and how to get the maximum mark in a specific answer. My teacher hand me out one of these when doing my first mock and explained me how to go through them and to be honest it was super useful so I know what I got wrong/right etc

MY OWN NOTES general tips: 1. colour code your notes 2. use multiple different resources 3. KZbin videos, documentaries 4. always consider how different events affect different people e.g. different sexes, social class revision: 1. TIMELINE, make mini timelines about different things and a whole timeline 2. timegraphs: chronological and ranking e.g. of power 3. FACTS! use flashcards ---- day pile, every other day, every week, every month .... 4. learn how to compare over time 5. mind maps about different things 6. ESSAY PLANS 7. flow chart of events essay writing: 1. plan the first sentence of an essay ---- use a hard fact for each event 2. plan before you write ---- intro, a para on the stated factor, what you think, subsequent paras linked to the question, always link back to the question and ur argument 3. underline your essay using two coloured pens ---- one: hard facts two: analysis, so that u know what u r lacking 4. different angles 5. don't mention new ideas in the conclusion 6. backup ur argument using facts sources: 1. read through it and go through it again using a highlighter 2. link back to the question in every para Thank you Jack!!!

I have my IB History exams on the upcoming Friday and Monday, was absolutely shitting it thinking I had no chance of doing well, but you lay everything out so well! Have realised my issue is in memorisation, as in I need to sit down and memorise key dates and perspectives. I know a lot more than I think it’s more about fine tuning! Essay plans are also a life saver ❤️ thank you thank you thank you.

[@izwiz2792]

General tips: Colour code your notes Write down lecture notes as your teacher might give you *more* content not in the book Use multiple books. Watch youtube videos Always consider how different events effect different people Revision: Timelines Time graph Facts learn through flashcards (active recall) Compare over time through the years Mindmaps. (Colourcoded - red for disad and blue for ad to get an overview) Essaysplans

[@izwiz2792]

Plan before starting. Start with a hard fact. Link back to the question and your argument for sustained argument. Start with the stated factor. Bookmark with language like more importantly or less significantly Underline and highlight facts and analysis to see what ur are lacking Back up everything with a fact.

I am going into Year 13 this September (eeeekkkk) but feeling much more prepared after trying some of your revision tips (I will do all of them, I'm on it!). Here's hoping for a great result at the end. Congratulations on your Uni success and thank you so much for your help. :)x

Great video, especially with the tip on introductions and timetables, really helped! Nearing A2 exams with Cold War and Tudor modules (uh oh). Thanks for uploading! :)

[@jack_edwards]

Ahhhh good luck - I'm sure you'll smash it!

[@amberbarker3406]

I do History, Economics and Physics and found this video immensely useful as History is my only essay subject and so different from the other two, it seems so so so so content heavy, thanks so much!

[@phoebe4150]

honestly seeing that giant peg in the background was the best part of the video

[@phoebe4150]

(just kidding, this video was lovely as usual:)

[@jack_edwards]

I'd be lying if I said I said I didn't own at least four of those giant pegs...

[@aimenmobeen2490]

Hi, hope you're doing well😊. I actually think your magic. I was just looking through my south Africa file. Trying to make sense of my notes and I just got a notification for this video, perfect timing(as always👍)Great videos btw!😊😊❤

[@jack_edwards]

hahahaha my video was actually delayed going up so clearly someone knew you'd need it now!

[@miaip3446]

Thanks for the video! I love the variety of methods you have in order encounter information in as many ways as possible. I’m taking History A level and didn’t do gcse, so this is super helpful.

[@ellashelton7621]

How do you analyse in essays? I’m doing history a level atm and I’m struggling on how to analyse in these essays! Would be a great video x

[@achintk7937]

I like the note card piles idea! Will definitely try that.

[@KristinaStylesXx]

Omg thank you so much I’ve been waiting soooooooo long for you to make this video!!!!! Was 100% needed since exams are in 2 months 😭😫

[@jack_edwards]

My pleasure! Honestly it's been so highly requested for about a year that I couldn't avoid it anymore hahaha

[@pandaada2181]

Omg! This is soooooooo useful... Never ever ever thought about making a time line It has always been very hard for me to remember years and dates Thanks Jackk

[@hibax631]

You're so cute and optimistic!. Im currently near my GCSE O3 exams and I haven't yet decided A level exams. I'll definitely take literature it's an amazing subject

[@mollyduffy8861]

Your channel is growing so fast!!! 24k WHATT!!!!! I'm not surprised, anyone who isn't subbed is missing out 😊😊 Best KZbin ever and btw I loved how you split the video up 💗

[@jack_edwards]

24K I KNOW RIGHT ?!?!?!?!? WHAT IS GOING ON

[@serinat2181]

LOLLLLL when you don't do history but you still watch it because you love Jack and hate procrastinating on your a levels(English and Sociology)

[@alishavlogs988]

I’ve done my A Levels last year, I’m just watching for you💕😅

[@jack_edwards]

oh i do 💜you just a little bit (a lot)

[@charleysmith5849]

I'm in a good place with history rn, but I want to be extra prepared and I think your tips are amazing! Thanks so much! I used Timelines with GCSE and it helped a lot so will definitely use that, and the flashcard system you have is so productive so I will use that for all my subjects! Thank you xx

[@strangeanimations9740]

Wow thanks Jack! This is really helping me for my exams!!

[@jack_edwards]

[@sirarchibald]
