Evaluating source utility purely on content, without analysing date, author, mode, motive, audience, and tone together.

Work through all six angles, date, author, mode, motive, audience, tone, and connect each one to what the source can and cannot tell a historian.

Naming only a source's strengths and never its limitations in a utility answer.

State one clear limitation alongside the strengths. Level 4 is lost specifically for omitting the limitations, however good the strengths analysis is.

Summarising Interpretation A and Interpretation B one after the other in AS 1 Question 2(b) without testing them against each other.

Write a paragraph testing each interpretation against independent context, then a final paragraph that compares them directly and states which is more convincing.

Writing a one-sided AS 2 essay that agrees unquestioningly with the proposition given, with no counter-argument.

Build in the strongest available counter-argument before your conclusion. A response with no genuine alternative view cannot reach Level 4.

Dismissing a historian's interpretation as "biased" instead of assessing the validity of their evidence and argument.

Judge the interpretation on its evidence and reasoning, not on the historian's presumed standpoint alone.

Spending disproportionate time on the 8-mark AS 2 Part (i) question at the expense of the 22-mark Part (ii) essay.

Give Part (i) about 12 minutes and Part (ii) about 33 minutes. Move on once Part (i) has answered the question asked.

Making unsubstantiated claims in AS 2 essays without precise dates, legislation, or named individuals.

Attach one specific piece of evidence, a date, an act, a named figure, to every analytical claim you make.
