hey anyone else not know what happened for the first personality q..the 10 mark one...wtf was that????? normally they ask for a recount of their life this one was totally different..u need to talk abt context behind the person..i didnt actually end up talking about much of his public life (speer) just about background and family cause the q didnt ask for his public life...only context and personal origins and stuff...anyone else do speer? did i do it wrong or what?????????
Hey, yeah I found that aswell. I did Gorbachev and I focussed mainly on his background and context. I don't know fi I did it right, I really just wrote a narrative of his life. It was definately not an essay so I'm a little concerned.
I actually like part b, but I'm not sure I answered it right. I talked about post modernism and how traditionally history was all about winners but now we approach it form many angles. No Idea if its right. I really hope so.

Same right! Grrr
And my sister did so well that it piles on the pressure.
Either way, I've put tonnes of heaps low courses at the bottom of my preferences... so if i just suck rly badly I can go to some of them!

I wish I didn't have drama on the 7th..... especially with my 18th on the 5th -.-, but oh well, living it up after that :)
When are yours ending?

i thought that the graph showed casualties from the gas for the entire war, and i want to know if everyone else picked up that the US didnt enter until 1918 and that the question asked what country had the least casualties from 1916-1917, (probably dont understand what i am going on about but anyway)
Odd, because I'm sure that above the graphs it said "Casualties from 1916-17". If not then oh well another mark down the toilet.

Yeah, the US joined in 1917... my textbook just says that the presence wasn't FELT until 1918.... but doesn't mean that some didn't die from it right :S
