History tomorrow...

Da Shins Kelly

What's being tipped? All I've heard is Mussolini, German foreign policy (as in, why Hitler went to war and all that) and The Moon Landing.

What about Ireland?

I wish I knew I'm freaking out.
I've basically only done the case studies. Anybody else the same?

You should be ok for titles, as one will come up, but you run the risk of an awkwardly phrased question.

I haven't EVEN done the case studies At least I don't do French, like some poor sods! (most people) Although as soon as history finishes I gotta cram biology, art history, and German... Still! I will be SO HAPPY when history is over!!! Not that I dislike it, but because it's just such a scary exam...

By the way I think Ireland in WW2 is coming up for S&P. I'm putting most of my study emphasis on that anyway!

PRAYING Pop Culture comes up along with a birra Sunningdale. Ah just looking forward to this time tomorrow full stop(.)

orlabobs

Oh I will be very happy when Hitstory's done. I mean, It's my fav subject, but boy is there alot to learn.

My bets are (as well as my hopes!):
Sinn Fein
Consolidating democracy
Influence church on politics and state

Mussolini
Anti Semitism
Church state relations germany and italy
foreign policy germany
britain (maybe society ww2)

US economy
Moon Landing
Mont Bus Boycott

Oh and for some reason, I think Colraine will make a shock appearance. Or sunningdale, but I think they'll want to stay away from the obvious...

Me too, I'll be so depressed if it goes badly. I think that's why I'm so scared about it - I'm putting loads of pressure on myself that I HAVE to get an A1, so if it turns out badly I'll be so disappointed! I think a lot of people are the same... Hence the dread :P

That whole issue was going on right through the year , including the time when the paper was made.Hence, I reckon the Apprentice Boys of Derry might show up , and in the contextualisation Q you could mention it if you mention Bloody Sunday

Don't worry, you can definitely get a B! None of this negative talk, don't be worrying!
I wouldn't pull an all nighter, history is impossible on little sleep! Your performance in that 3 hours is just as important as how much you know so make sure you're in good form! I'm gonna study until around 10 and then get up at 6 or 7 - at least then I'll have a decent bit of sleep I suppose. Tempted for the all nighter myself at this stage though :P

Bloody Sunday isn't really important so I wouldn't worry. Basically http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloody_Sunday_(1972)

NR

Ireland Topic 3: Eucharistic Congress, 1916, Cosgrave Years, Free State/Northern Ireland in WW2
Case Studies: All of them, Coleraine and Apprentice Boys of Derry aren't too much bother to get through.

And for the others:
Europe Topic 2: I just know Bismarck, Wilhelm II, and Germany's economy, and that should be fine for one essay
Europe Topic 3: Church/State Tensions, Anti-Semitism in Germany, Purges/Show Trials

That's what I've gathered from wandering around the internet and notes I've gotten from different courses.

YungJoshy

I havnt looked at anything from Northern Ireland as the answers will be in the documents. Will I get away with this?

milk two sugars

CnaG and FF economic and social policies
eucharistic congress


russia stalin/lenin
nuremberg rallies
britain in ww11

vietnam
moon landing
american foreign poicy

sunningdale/coleraine

Is History still the 3 hours 20 mins exam it used to be where you had to write about 40 pages?

Mau5

Im looking at only being able to answer essays with about 4 paragraphs excluding into + conclusion then just refaring back to the question loads to squeeze marks out of it!

hopefully got about 15% for research project if not more, then say 10-15 % out of the document then about 10% from the other questions...

Id be chuffed just not failing it at this stage TBH:(

ceol18

SEInvincible

I know me too! 40 minutes is just not enough!! I have to be really disciplined, no matter where I am in the essay I force myself to stop after exactly 40 minutes and move on. Tis the only way!
