this subject is killing me

pip:
this subject is doing me head in.
How much do i need to fucking know? How do i fucking even answer questions? My teacher makes it interesting but i need to be taught how to at least answer a question!!!
i really need a tutor, or help or something. (rips hair out)

Amnesiac:
Calm down pip, it's not an easy subject so everybody is probably in the same boat as you. If you're confused with how much you need to know, just look in the study design ( i know it's vague, but it's important) or ask your teacher. If you need practice answering questions my advice to you would be to gather some past exams and their relevent assessment reports. Use the examiners advice to start and structure your own responses, and then take them to your teacher and hopefully they will mark it for you. If you're finding the content extremely stressful, take a step back and break everything down into steps. It's not that difficult if you think of the course as being several seperated topics. I tutor the Russian and Chinese revolution and this is the way i teach my students. It prevents you from being bombarded with information.

Hopefully i've given you some helpful information. If not, just pm me and i'll answer any questions you have.

pip:
thanks amnesiac
lol its probably not the best to vent right after a sac right?!
Thats useful advice i think i will have a go at the exams and examiners reports.. i have just found that because i was studying for the AOS 1 sac i neglected the AOS 2 work we had begun on and thus have totally lost track of the 'story'. And then it was frustrating to do the sac and have no idea where to put what information, events ect which was stressfull because it's worth 50% of unit 3... oh well i'll wait till i get the sac back to assess the damage

rh:
i had the same problem with the aos 1 sac. i (mostly) understood the content but when it came to deciding what information to include/omit in my essay, i had no idea. i'm dreading getting my mark back.

which revolutions are you studying, pip?
