Especially with the historiography aspect. Whereas others are hating it in my Modern class, I quite like it :)

I found it's actually helped me for Ancient History, especially Herodotus because he's involved in the Greek world and Sparta. I admit I've dropped one place in Ancient History but still getting 91, so I think it's just finding the balance, and also I hate exams, but with everything in this year, no matter what subject its just pushing past it. Done let it get u down.

History Extension and Ancient History (for me, personally), seemed to require different sorts of writing / research skills. Maybe in that sense, it makes it more difficult; because even though they're both of the histories, they're very dissimilar. But Hayley.L is correct in saying 'Dont let it get you down'. It is VERY possible to do both subjects and excel at each of them. :)

If anything Extension is better than Modern because you can talk about a wider array of things! Besides from all the wide reading and thick booklets of notes and textbooks its a really fascinating subject!

I find it has helped my analytical skills in Modern. Also, everyone that does HX at my school is in the top 10 of Modern history (since our topic is Appeasement, nobody from ancient does it...)
