Hello! I haven't been able to find a table of grade boundaries for papers 1, 2, and 3 under the new guide. Is there any resource or orientation on this?
b. How was independence achieved?This helps. I will treat the rest of Reginal Study 9 the same way. Thanks.
b. The impact of Truman's containment policyThanks Jo. Would you say that the mark scheme's reference to 'perspectives' then is more about these different angles/views, or is referring to the context of the sources, or actually requires students to be doing both things - the context of the...

b. The impact of Truman's containment policyI have a question - if there is a question about the impact of the New Look, student answers should only be focused on the Americas? So no Iran 1953? Thanks - Josh in Portland Oregon
