The second edition of our hugely popular Higher History Grade Booster has been fully revised to reflect the changes to the Higher History course and exam, which come into effect in August 2010. This new edition explains the new course structure and exam format, and provides sample answers for both Paper 1 Topics (British, European and World contexts) and the Paper 2 Topics (Scottish contexts). In particular, the second edition provides advice on tackling the new source evaluation and source comparison questions that are being introduced in the Paper 2 exam, and demonstrates how to successfully give both short response and extended response answers in order to maximise marks.
