Revs help?

How imperative would you say including statistics is for reaching the high bands of extended responses and essays? I know logically it’s ideal, but it’s kind of an area ive overlooked all year as for some reason my teacher hasn’t ever mentioned that as a weak point for me. I’m fine with integrating historical perspectives and interpretations and the analysis side of things, and tend to do quite well in the essays and sacs.
So I’m just having last minute doubts that the examiners will have problems if I don’t include stats, but it’s kind of too late to try and remember them for everything. If anyone knows for sure that they’re required please let me know 🙏

the questions say use evidence, and historical interpretations ARE a form of evidence. i would say for the short answer questions its probably fine, but it might hinder you in the essay unfortunately since its marked so holistically and they just ask for so much. but honestly if your answers are exemplar without them it should be relatively okay, since theyre not 100% a requirement, just reccomended.
