I am getting the [Greek World] essay out of the way first then do the rest in their order.

 

[nitto]

Same here! I am obsessed with Pompeii, probably a little too much. But trying to memorize all this stuff about the Greek world and Agrippina is SO boring . Honestly, I hate this subject, and I regret choosing it. The content is interesting, but it's just so overwhelming, and I feel completely overloaded.

damn we do similar topics. i didnt do greek world but yeah im investing so much time into pompeii, my other sections i can hardly remember quotes and evidence for. its so overwhelming, its like i have to become a library storing 1000+ years of info

literally, its like we literally needed to experience this in order to remember

This is so true bro. When you read through the syllabus, you think “oh there isn’t a lot of dot points” but each dot point needs 3 lessons to be covered each.

 

[thelmalouise]

wait theres basically no hope omg

yeah fr its probably why i enjoy p+h the most, prolly cause it hardly has any quotes and its like general knowledge of archaeologists + cultural life

Yes omg and I actually like studying their ways of life. Greek world is Boring because I sersisouly do not care what tactic they used in what war. Sparta is also interesting because their generally weird And Agrippina is meh.

agrippina i'm pretty confident on, mostly cause the questions are pretty formulaic. most likely there's something on her early life as a short response, and the big 15 marker either on impact/legacy, or on the assessment of her character influencing her time

 

[thelmalouise]

i do sparta and aggy too, sparta is the biggest drag of all time, i keep getting it mixed up with pompeii and herculaneum and its so dry

yep we do sparta as well, tho instead of greek world we do julio claudians cause it marries up perfectly with agrippina.

same with the augustan age except there is an insane amount of sources and stuff to remember

nice, i can hardly remember ancient / modern historian quotes + names for sparta. my teacher is telling me to integrate ancient, modern and archaeological evidence as my sources. all i remember is "asses under great loads" about the helots

 

[thelmalouise]

HAHAHAH, and our grade average is sooooo bad too so theres nothing dragging us up

 

[chlolowery11]
