    I'd say a question could come up on the Battle Of Britain. Came up on my mocks hadnt got it in a while.

    Also, on the mocks I had to write about the life of a farmer, just made it up because I couldnt remember learning about that so I just said I ploughed the fields and so on and got 100%. Our teacher said it was correctec by a high up person in the history teachers association that corrected it so...

    Operation Barbarossa might come up...

    Id love if Cuba and Castro came up...

    Plantations and A worker during the Ind. Rev haven't come up in a good while so be sure 2 have a good lot of knowledge oni those :D hmm Irish History came up last year so its unlikely it'll come up this year, go over exploration and the industrial revolution too, the Ind Rev is nearly guaranteed! The holocaust was tipped by our teacher too so maybe just know about Krystalnacht etc..


    Ahhhh good luck everyone, iv gotta go study :(

    Yeh the short answer questions were tricky i really had to wrack my brains to fill in a few over 10 just in case!! People in history was realy good, the Source E+F thing on The Reign of Terror American War of Independance etc was kinda bad :(
