Usually, but I am pretty sure that they dont have to do this (cem might be able to clarify).Usually for Germany, it's 1 question on Weimar and the other one on Nazis/Hitler right?

It appears so, but in 2007, the first question asked for the years 1923 to 1939, so if we cut off the Weimar era at 1933 (when Hitler became chancellor), it does include the Nazi era. Since the question is about change, then knowledge of the Nazi era is paramount.Usually for Germany, it's 1 question on Weimar and the other one on Nazis/Hitler right?
I managed to predict one question from both Germany and Conflict in Europe - although I didnt base my study off those predictions. I think last year I predicted both the Germany and Conflict in Europe essays (which isnt saying much considering most people were able to predict them).P.S. enoilgam and D94 were you guy's able to predict the questions in your respective MH exams?
Yeah, I predicted mine, but I guess it was fairly obvious for my year (2011) since they were the main topics which a question hadn't been asked in previous years (for both Conflict in Europe and Germany). However, in saying this, I doubt anyone predicted the question asked in the personalities section. Previously it asked to discuss a statement with regards to the personality, but last year they asked a question detailing 3 important aspects of their lives.P.S. enoilgam and D94 were you guy's able to predict the questions in your respective MH exams?
I never bothered trying to predict the personality section to be honest - it's just too random. Part a is a bit easier.However, in saying this, I doubt anyone predicted the question asked in the personalities section.

This exactly, personality questions can be rather spontaneous at times, especially with part b), the quote (pre-2011) questions were almost impossible to predict, however my teacher for Modern was able to get the quote question word for word in Ancient History.I never bothered trying to predict the personality section to be honest - it's just too random.

This would be near impossible to predict, in terms of the sources used.What about for cold war?
Yes, I think my teacher was talking about that as well.I reckon how social and cultural life has changed after nazis
I didn't mean "predict the exact question", but along the lines of no one could have foreseen a change in the style of the personalities question. It had been a statement + question for 4 years or something, and then last year they changed it to a question + question, which was unexpected. Everyone was expecting a statement/quote to discuss, even if they didn't know what it was about.I never bothered trying to predict the personality section to be honest - it's just too random.

I got your PM - it might take a while to respond because BoS is screwing up at the moment.Yes, I think my teacher was talking about that as well.
True - I think a few people were suprised to see that change.I didn't mean "predict the exact question", but along the lines of no one could have foreseen a change in the style of the personalities question.

This is pretty accurate, our Independent trial paper had a question based around Collectivisation and Industrialisation so Stalinism is likely and Bolshevik consolidation of power would be excellent if it related to War Communism/NEP or the Civil War (I'm not too good on the general info)Predications:
WW1: Ehh all source based really anyway so who knows
Indochina: Some question about the impact on civilians and one on American policy
Personality: Random as, maybe something about ambition/principles?
Russia: One about Stalinism and change in Stalin society and the other about Lenin and Bolshevik consolidation of power (Personally would love a Stain/Trotsky power struggle Q, love Trotsky he'd be a great personality study)
Personality section should not be daunting anyway: Part A is basically their life with reference to "rise to prominence" or "significant events"I didn't mean "predict the exact question", but along the lines of no one could have foreseen a change in the style of the personalities question.

I believe I did the IND paper too, I went for the Consolidation QThis is pretty accurate, our Independent trial paper had a question based around Collectivisation and Industrialisation so Stalinism is likely and Bolshevik consolidation of power would be excellent if it related to War Communism/NEP or the Civil War (I'm not too good on the general info)
