I did the New Deal last year and doing History at A Level and hopefully uni.

Don't worry guys, I thought I done so badly in my exam last year but managed to get an A. As long as you start with a good intro and give the examiner a good first impression, they will give you good marks. The examiners only look for good points not the bad points in your essay.
If your doing a source question, really try to analyse it, so talk about provenance,origin, usefulness, reliability and how typical of your own knowledge is.
But mainly use your own knowledge well.

Good luck, I know it will be nervewracking but it will be over sooner than you think and I am sure it will all come back to you in the exam.

Basically just write down everything you know lol. When using sources remember to engage with the material and address the fact that bias may play a part, always take note of who produced the source and comment on what the source doesn't tell you just as much as what is does tell you.
I remember I crossed out a page of writing on my GCSE history exam and still came out with a B.
I did Nazi Germany, The League of Nations, Treaty of Versailles and the New Deal for coursework.

I had two hours of history today so that we could start writing for our GCSE Mocks. I ended up not doing my work because my head of year asked me to come and help the new girl in my class (shes just moved to England from Jamaica so she has been working on different topics such as the carrabien history etc..) But i didnt say no though because out of my class im the only one that she talks to because i think shes quite nervous of the others. So i didnt learn anything lol x

If Parnell,Bismarck,Ireland during WW2 and the Montgomery Bus Boycott come up,I will cry/scream with happiness!

Otherwise,I feel pretty screwed.
