    I had an assignment this year on hitler's role in nazi successes. If that question was asked, what successes would we have to mention.. I just thought we would have to talk about total nazi control of society.

I don't know anything about Growth of European tensions, 1st half of Course of the European war and also dont know about...

    Yeah i hope Germany sections question is on either anything weimar/ rise of hitler and nazi party/nazism as totalitarianism. However i doubt they will ask totalitarianism question. If they ask a question about changes in society you could also refer that to the idea of totalitarianism and talk...

    I hope conflict in europe questions are on turning points and final defeat, not on the holocaust or reasons for ww2 because i have no clue about them. Also for germany national studies section, what knowledge should we need for a question asking about racial policies, or the role of the army at...

    Treaty of Versailles

    You would just need to know what the restrictions imposed on the Germans were and the effects it had on the Weimar government and German society. It's fairly easy. I hope the question this year asks how it impacted the weimar government.

    I've recieved two offers from a friend. GTX 560 ($179.00) or AMD HD 7850($265.00)??

    Re: I've recieved two offers from a friend. GTX 560 ($179.00) or AMD HD 7850($265.00) Basically, the GTX 560 is a last-gen 1GB graphics card from Nvidia. The Radeon HD 7850 is a current-gen 2GB card from AMD. If you plan to overclock the card, definitely go for the 7850 over the GTX560. The AMD...

    I hope the Germany question has nothing to do with foreign policy. I don't know much also on the impact of the great depression.

    I was taught to have an intro and conclusion but only around 1-2 sentences each. Then you separately go into each source discussing usefulness in terms of relialiability, perspective, etc. My teacher said that you need to have historiography in the answer to get 15/15. In the trials i got 12/15...

    How many stats/quotes memorised per essay for modern history?

    It depends on you. You must have arguments for and against for each essay. For me personally, i'm not very good with remembering exact quotes so i go in with how the historian argues and maybe just a few quotes from each on the topic.
