history predictions

LegacyUser

ok, for
sec A: constructive unionism or home rule after Parnell
sec B: blueshirts, Lemass or Cumann na nGeadheal
section C, weve been told bismark or imperialism
sec DeGaulle or most likely Hitlers rise to, and consolidation of, power.

This is what my history teacher hasd told us, but I'm of weak faith, can anyone second these predictions? I'm a little worried about section A

Kold

Sect A:
Land Issue
Home Rule
Some form of Unionism
Independence (1916 and the war)
Collins/Pearse

Sect B:
The Civil War
CnaG
Fianna Faíl 1932-38
Ireland in WW2 (A nice little question if it comes up, 6 years where nothing really happened, possible 2-3 pager)
Lemass (Which'll be my primary topic in this sect)

Sect C:
Bismarck
France 3rd republic
Imperialism
Russia 1870-1917
Treaty of Versailles
The Eastern Question

Sect
Hitler:
1)Rise to power
2)Foreign Policy
Facism
The Spanish Civil War (I'd avoid this :dunno: )
World War 2 (1942 is your key year)
The Cold War (not too shabby a topic)

We were also told to do Bismarck, Treaty of Versaills, CnaG OR Fianna Fail and ofcourse ohe of the dictators for section d.

So hopefully your teacher isnt wrong, otherwise mine is too.

Hey Kold, you seem to now the whole paper inside and out. Do you know something we dont?

PHB

None of you know anything you don't

The predictions(guesses) are simply based on patterns in the past papers which anyone can make.

Kold simply stated enough info that would cover any paper

So nobodies reports/hints/predictions seem to be onflicting...that musy be a good sign.
Dont suppsoe there are any history teachers on here that could give some sort of opinion on these predictions?

StickyMcGinty

i've some very good history notes for anyone who wants them, well not notes, but advice etc. and a breakdown of each question, that my LEGEND of a teacher gave me for history!

pm me if ye want em'

Cannibal Ox

We were told there's only one year left on the course so it's unlikely they'll change the pattern.
Which is basically what's been said here, told for 90% sure at least one Dictator (Stalin, Hitler, Muss), Unionism, Parnell/Land League, CnaG and Bismark.

Stalin

Im in a bit of a dilema ,im only going to know two topics from each section.They are as follows..


Davitt
All of home rule

blue****s
all of Dev except for neutrality

France
Bismarck

Hitler
Stalin[hence the name]

What else should i defin cover????

valor

gladstone / cons unionism
lemass / cummann na ngeadheal
imperialism / bismarck
hitler rise + total

thats all im learnin

smelly girl

dont follow predictions, people tend to just pull questions outta their arses and hope for the best.

however if you have actually spotted the actual exam paper, smelly girl loves you.

Smelly girl obviously doesnt pay much attention to her exam papers.

ChemistryXpert

I understand the pulling a question out of your ass thingy but what do you normally get when you pull something out of your arse???? =****..And thats what the answer would be..

Anyway history has a quite reliable pattern to pick off and the worst thing that could happen is a joint Q like Stalin and Hitler ,,,,etc

banquo

A: Unionist opposition to Home Rule 1870-1920. This question comes up EVERY YEAR and yet no-one does it.

b: Lemass; Northern Ireland

c: Eastern question; bismarck

d: hitler rise + total

e: whatever.

2003 was straightforward "Ulster unionism 1885-1920", 2002 was "developments up to 1920 which led to the establishment of N.Ireland", same thing, 2001 was "unionist opposition to self-government 1886-1920", 2000, "Irish unionism 1886-1914", 1999, "Carson and Craig", 1998, "Irish unionism 1886-1920", etc. It's come up in some shape or form every year from 1997 onwards, and also appeared in 1995, 1993, 1990 and 1987.

PHB

It comes up every year and everyone does it silly person

The reason you shouldn't do it is because everybody does it and its harder to do well in it

Are you sure everyone does it. My teacher said that no-one does it & so was ehncouraging us to do it.

Kold

Ok I need a section A... I simply can't get my head around any type of unionism or home rule.

Has anyone got a prediction that involves people dying and stuff?

valor

do gladstone. there is only one question they can ask and its 90% to come up this year.

Kold

I've never studied him, will he take long? what's the question?

senordingdong

Do constructive Unionism, not only is it the easiest type of Unionism, its also an easy topic full stop, whihc is also exp[ected to come up this year.

Gladstone is simple, and ties in with parnell, which is good if you've studied him.

1869 disestablishment of the church of ireland
1870 land act. ulster custom legalised where already in place.
1873 university bill
1881 land act 2/3 purchase price to tennants, except lease holders.
parnell jailed for speaking out against it, kilmainham treaty. End of parnell in land war, focused on home rule
1885 general election, the HR party hold the balance, bring back gladstone
1886 1st hr bill, very limited, defeated in the commons, by some dissident liberals. Gladstones party disunited
1893 despite parnell being dead, gladstone puts another HR bill through the commons, it passes, but its defeated in the lords.
Gladstone retires later that year

Thats all of gladstone (i think) check all of those dates though, some of them are wrong. simple stuff;)

France 3rd republic
Imperialism
Russia 1870-1917
Treaty of Versailles
The Eastern Question

The Emergancy came up last year....as did the third french republic and irrish govts. from 1948-66. Which can discount both CnaG and Fianna Fail.

nesthead

A: Gladstone, Construcive Unionism (+regular Unionsim)

B: ________, _________, (!!!??!!?!?!??!)

C: Bismarck (domestic and foreign), Imperialism

All Hitler. (+Stalin back up)

claire h

nesthead

snickerpuss

Im praying to sweet jesus that lemass, bismarck, gladstone or parnell, the cold war or russia 1870-1917 comes up or im highly fecked altogether.
I only want to pass though, but after my "impressive" 18% in the mocks im not feeling too good.
(Although id like to point out that nothing i knew came up at all)
