Reducto!

Does anyone know/ remember the code for SPM History paper? I always did. It's History 1249/1 or 1249/2. Why? Well, I consider myself as one of  those kids who considers (almost) everything very important. Since schools nationwide are already in session after the so-called Summer Break, I believe things become more serious, yet complicated due to time which is the antagonist in that situation.

Among the papers I did during the final year of high school

To my humble opinion, (not offending anyone since I encounter the same problem) I realised that History is among the toughest subject. Never fear, I 'm here! ( It rhymes! Whee..) To reduce(reducto) /help people change their perspective about a certain subject or more. Always treat it/them as your team-mates not your enemies. Why is that so? Go figure that out. I'm sure that you are sane and smart enough to do so. Are you up for my challenge? Scroll down the page. Here we go!

So, how was it? Tell me how well you did. (To be frank, I didn't do so well because I LAUGHED). Just ignore that. How did you figured out the answers?  I'm sure that you'll be saying of course I know the right answers! The other options are ridiculous and don't make sense at all! Even my younger siblings can answer that.

Try to think back, search deep inside yourself and ask : "How on Earth did I knew the answers on the first place?" (minus the outrageous options)
Did you read and gain information in the past? Or did someone tell you the story behind a certain event/ the fact before? Actually, it happened to me. Due to my curiosity, I managed to discover new paths and answers.
I treated those "Evil" subjects as my buddies and we managed to settle our differences in the end.
