Analysing evidence · Part 1 of 3
6 exam-style questions with model answers, plus 8 quick multi-choice questions — every question on this part of the standard, grouped by the 2 pages of notes they come from.
Write a full answer before you reveal the model one. That comparison is where the learning happens.
Describe what the AS91436 examination requires you to do, and what you are assessed on.
Explain in depth why AS91436 is the Level 3 History external a student can prepare for most reliably, and what that preparation should consist of.
Comprehensively analyse why the 2025 report warns against mnemonics such as PLONK, when mnemonics are widely taught for source analysis.
List the historical concepts AS91436 names and describe what each asks you to look for.
Explain in depth why candidates find continuity and change harder than the other concepts, when it appears more often than any other.
Comprehensively analyse the relationship between reliability and usefulness, and why the standard's own framing makes an unreliable source potentially the most valuable in the booklet.
