yea i did ace the history paper and that was because i had predicted the paper and only prepared till 1947 nd the problems after partition, i knew that there would be at least 3 questions from this part of the syllabus, it was a very risky decision but I got lucky and there were 3 questions, and I aced them.
I appeared last year in the May/June 2010 session with all the eight subjects in one go.
And no there wasn't any question where i could copy paste a marking scheme because quite frankly, I never saw a marking scheme of history, I just made a set of notes of about 10 pages which covered the entire syllabus in a form which showed every possible answer that the examiner could ask for and i memorized all of it, and it helped.
