Would you have a digital copy of your response? I could take a look at it if you want.

You're teacher should have, told you want essay format he deems to be the 'best'. Each Rev teacher is anal about how you write your essays. If he has taught you a structure, stick to that. Because after all he is going to be marking your SACs. If not, I'll tell you what my teacher taught me.

TrueLight:
yeah take notes ... read ... a lot! read read read...highlight if you want... answer some extended response questions....listen to your teacher...go through practice questions or essay questions before sacs...i liked the structured progression of the things we were taught for revs... i did russian and chinese too..

i.am.amanda:
Read, read, read, and then write, write and write. Make sure you study everything that could possibly be on the exam. My biggest mistake was taking 'educated guesses' about what was going to be on the exam. Ugh. Just study everything!

I found note 'pages' very helpful. I would condense information like, dot points of info about the event, historians views, facts and figures, all on one page and that was all I would study for that event. I ended up with 2 display folders completely full of info though, lol.

Although, I found studying for the exam during the year/early in the year really difficult. Partly becuase I didn't have a detailed knowledge of the revolution, and my skills were just not up to scratch. That may just be me! By the end of the year, I looked back on my first SAC and though "WTF How on earth did I get an A+ for THAT piece of crap?!?"

Just find what works for you...and enjoy it! Revolutions is awesome! xD

Trent:
Constant revision, extensive reading outside set readings and practice writing within the parameters of the questions asked. Also, develop your own interpretation of events.
