My exam prediction (2 Viewers)

[TastesGoodBut]

Only one im going to attempt to pick is core

and ill say that itll be on Peace-talks etc etc

look how many times it comes up in syllabus and hasnt ever been asked yet

 

[braindrainedAsh]

Omigod, Noooooooooo!!!! Please let it be on women or something!

I'll ay for Germany there will be women and youth.

For Indochina, In reckon it'll be US Foreign Policy.

 

[apollo]

im reakoning women or the peace talks for core

i dont think it'll be US foreign policy for indochina, cos that was in it last year... i reakon it'll be something to do with nationalist leaders or cambodian & south vietnamese villagers.

as for the USA... prohibition, the KKK or the new deal... 1 of them has to be in there... if not, i will cry in the exam

 

[hellohello]

germany will be on weimar

 

[Nick]

sif peace talks for core, itll be on the home fronts..

(i hope)

 

[Loz#1]

I'm with Ash, let's pray it's on women.

 

[s2ophie]

yep i'm praying on women and youth - thats three of us - do you think it will have any effect!

 

[Benno]

bah i dont care what its about for WW1, tis easy

Its germany and Indochina im worried about

 

[MiuMiu]

theres two questions, so maybe one will be Weimar, one women & youth? But we did women & youth for our trial (I didn't answer it though) so what are the chances?

 

[dandaman]

generally they split the two questions into a social and political/military thing
i highly doubt weimar will be in it but my predictions are generally quite shoddy

 

[MaryJane]

women and youth for germany was done last year

i think this yr will be somethng on foreign policy or something like that, international stuff. maybe militarism? theres always one question which deals with weimar

nationalists leaders for indo and probably women or changing attitudes for the core

well, thats my prediction anyways

 

[HannieStar]

Germany:
-War Machine
-Indoctrination by Nazis

Indochina:
-Impact of US foreign policy on Cambodia
-Role of Vietcong 1954-1975

WW1:
-Versailles
-Western Front- something obscure about warfare OR soldier's attitudes....

 

[hellohello]

agree.

but indochina on success of NVN

It makes no difference what you did in the trial because the exams are set in April. They can't change them once the CSSA, independent trials etc come out.

and i predict that the personlaity question will be on either albert speer or leni riefenstahl!

 

[dandaman]

lol good prediction about speer and leni.. would never have thought of that one .......

 

[TastesGoodBut]

Just remember that chances are you wont need to know anything on cambodia... they will not ask a question about cambodia by itself it will be INDOCHINA or VIETNAM AND CAMBODIA or sumthing like that... and i highly doubt both questions will have to do with cambodia... all im gonna learn is the impact on it really..

 

[s2ophie]

they could ask a question about cambodia by itself. There is two dot points on it - spread of war into cambodia and and aims of Pol Pot's regime. plus it fits under nationalist leaders and villagers.

Also Cambodia is vital beacuse it is the spread of the war that makes it an indochina war and not just a vietnam war.

Actually there is 3 dp's - the effect of 20years of war.

Anyway, personally i would be prepared for it.

 

[*10#]

how the hell would u answer a whole essay of vietnamese villagers

anywayz i think it will b foreign policy or nationalist leaders

peace agreement ww1

germany - why they lost the war
- hitlers consolidation of power

* has anyone noticed that all essays in the new syllabus start with either Assess or Explain

dont know if dats relevant 2 anythin

 

[braindrainedAsh]

Impact on Vietnamese Villagers

-Diem- strategic hamlets, appointing village leaders, corruption, land reform
-Viet Cong infiltration
-Impact of American military tactics (bombing, zippo raids, search and destroy, WHAM)
-Tet- huge loss of life, NVA soldiers now moved in to south to make up the numbers
-Vietnamisation (Phoenix program, no US reduced)
-NVA's Final Offensive
-South brought under northern rule

Those are the kinds of things you could talk about, it applies mainly to the south rather than northern villagers.

i did a 1200 word essay in 40 minutes on villagers in south vietnam and cambodia for an assessment task, and there was still more i could speeled off...
