The topic for the source-based study is prescribed. Candidates are expected to have a sound knowledge of

understanding of the ways in which these sources may be evaluated.
A maximum of five sources will be set for the source-based study. Differing accounts of the same situations

or in communicating with different recipients. A variety of sources may be used, for example, documentary,
statistical, visual and maps. The sources set will usually total no more than 800 words (or their equivalent
where non-textual sources are used). The question poses candidates with an assertion which they need to
test against given sources and their background knowledge of issues.
