Common mistakes students make

• Mixing boards — Edexcel A Level (9HI0) is not interchangeable with another History programme.
• Describing when asked to explain — features without a mechanism score the lower tariff only.
• Vague definitions that do not use specification language.
• Skipping the neighbouring subtopic in The Making Of Modern China, 1860–1997, so the paper feels like isolated facts.
• Never testing retrieval — notes feel fluent until the free Defeat And Humiliation, 1894–1901 quiz shows the gap.
