  hi!! Got some problem in History.

  How do you even answer source based questions like : "Study Source A and E, how different are they?"

  Well, I answered how DIFFERENT they are, but my teacher only gave me one mark and said that there should be more things, but i dont know what are the more things she needed. so... PLS HELP!

  When they say 'Study Source A and E, how different are they?', 1st you will have to infer from Source A by writing what you infer/conclude from the source with support from the source itself. Then you will have to state the different by adding a linking word like However Source E differs from Source A as 'Your inference/conclusion drawn in source E + Support from source E itself'. After that, you HAVE to find a similarity among both of the source which i belief is what you are missing. The way of answering is same as how you answered the differences but the only thing now is you write down the similarity and not difference. This also apply for similarity questions like "Study Source A and E, how similar are they?" whereby you should answer in the same way only that it's similarity first then difference.
