i got a russia filled exam as well
Russia
Gorby
Cold War

oh god i hope that they do how ideology played a part in the origins of the cold war but they already did it last year so that sucks. thankfully there probably will be no stalin and foreign policy since its already been done. if they do arms race im screwed i hate that one!
apparently the guy who is in charge of writing the modern exam was hell bent on making it unpredictable this year, so who knows what questions are going to come up.

What are your thoughts about this years Modern Paper?

I think World War 1 will be on the Russian Withdrawal since they have never ever tested it!

Hmm, Russian Withdrawal could be a question but there's really not that much that we can talk about :S

im thinking either women, propaganda and censorship and the peace treaties?
Im not sure if they'll do Russian withdrawal since since they've done turning points two years in a row now. but maybe they'll be nice and do trench warfare?

for russia either how society was affected by the consolidation of power, or the power struggle maybe? for the rest i wouldnt have a clue

Could they really give a question on the Versailles Treaty? Cos the WWI syllabus only deals with the role and goals of the Big Three.

- the roles and differing goals of Clemenceau, Lloyd George and Wilson in creating the Treaty of Versailles.


And that has already been set as a question before.

i hope that its not tested. my teacher breezed through it saying that there was a small chance for it to be in the exam. i barely remember anything.

Hokay, my ideal exam is thus:

Core: Trenches/Role of women. Please be role of women.
America: New Deal/Impacts of Depression. Anything but foreign policy and social conservatism would be good.
J. Edgar Hoover: siiigh. i don't want anything on this question. Draw a pony and get 100 points.
IndoChina: Impacts!! Impacts impacts impacts impacts.

LOL

It feels like I don't know a thing, and I have no motivation at all seeing as this is my worst subject.

WW1
Germany
Speer
Conflict in Europe

Cramming begins. (tried to work lately and just isn't working)

WW1:
trench warfare
women
or
causes of the stalemate on the western front.

Germany:
I am begging for a Nazi racial policy question or evaluation of totalitarianism.

Speer:
Easy to predict and study for.
Sereny, Van der Vat etc

Cold War:
Bitch and a half.
I'm mainly focusing on the 1st half, just because i'm more comfortable in my knowledge of the events.
Last years question was ace...likelihood of a similarly great question? slim to none.
