the mock is on section 2/section 3 and section 4 of the textbook: BRitain 1815-1851 a study in depth. I cant connect with my teacher and find this whole topic a blur and confusing. How can i revise if i dont understand?

Last lesson, the teacher asked me a question and i said i didn't know the answer and all he said was .. well that wont help in the exam. so i cant rely on him and hes given us minimal notes on the topic so ahh what shall i do

My apologies for not having answered before; I am not an expert on this period and our revision 'guru', Mr. Clare, is very busy at the moment.

If your teacher is not being helpful, then you are left to sort things out by yourself. The best place to start is probably with your textbook. Is it any good for you? If so, then re-reading and taking your own notes should give you something to build on. Obviously this will take some time and you may have to carry on this process after your mocks. If your textbook does not 'work' for you, because different people get on better with different books, then let me know what it is and I will try to recommend some other texts.

Secondly, you need to try to get together with some of your colleagues and check any areas which you do not understand, swapping photocopied notes (don't waste time writing it out) of any lessons you missed and testing each other on content.

Thirdly, if you have any specific questions then post here and we will try to help you, a bit more quickly next time.

I hope that this helps. Remember, if things do not go well make sure your parents know how things stand. If necessary they need to contact the school to try to sort things out.
