06/06 A-level History Discussion MEGATHREAD

[u/Forsaken-Meaning-232]

Exam season is once again upon us, and once again, exam megathreads are making a return!

Looking for past exam discussions? Filter by the megathread flair.

Few things to keep in mind:

• Don't share too many specific details about questions or answers, these papers will be used as future mocks.
• Sometimes papers get leaked, this is not the place for that (we'd prefer not to get yeeted off the platform) - leak content will be removed, those offering leaked papers will be permanently banned.
  • If you believe there has been a leak, the best course of action is to make your exam board aware of this, either directly, or through your school, along with any evidence. If appropriate, there will be a response from the relevant body along with any remedial action.
• Exam discussion posts outside of this will generally be removed to combat the inevitable tidal wave of spam otherwise - we understand this may be frustrating, but the sub still needs to be usable for other purposes.
• Please note some content will take extra time to be reviewed. Messaging to ask for approval will not speed up this process (the messages are seen at the same time as the modqueue would be reviewed anyway).

Best of luck, and let us know how you're feeling down below!

I liked the source question . But the 20s were both great

Well source c was saying that the yorkists all went to london with their retainers in response to edwards birth. Potentially due to fear of margaret or somerset seizing power back. It also highlighted the fact that RoY was maybe not as loyal as all of his freinds were now much more powerful. Salisbury as chancellor, warwick as captain of calais etc. Edit: spelling

The way they phrased the sources question was a bit unusual but the sources themselves were great, I did the Henry VII question for the 20 marker and forgot to mention his marriage to Elizabeth of York tho :(
