    Cold war comes up nearly every year in Q6D. Learn a cold war crisis and you'll be alright.
    Go over ireland during the famine, the industrial revolution and the reformation for Q5.
    For question 4, I think a renaissance painter will come up. I also think a person from ancient Ireland will. Learn..... Rennaisance painter from italy and from outside of Italy. Learn a person from ancient Ireland and ancient Rome. Learn a reformer, learn an explorer, a person working in a factory during the IR and learn about a monk in early christian Ireland. You should be sorted for Q4 if you do that.
    For question 6, just make sure you know a cold war crisis and you know about operation barbarossa/overlord and how hitler and mousilini came to power.
    Also learn a few points about the civil war in ireland,war of independence, cumann na ngaedhael, first inter-party government, first dail, Ireland during the emergency and a few others if you want.... but you get the idea. That should cover all of Q6.
    Do social change if your better at it aswell. Or if something in 6A comes up that you like do it. But to be sure try and learn political developments and internationl relations 20th century.

    History is an intersting subject. It is not easy to do well at it, if you're not interested in it. You can't really just "BS your way through it" . Anyway, I have few things learned in detail and I know everything else to keep me going. I hope the essay topic "how fascist came to power" comes up:cool:.

    Hoping for at least a B, we'll see how it goes.

    Nerdy class :D , no really, smart people do well at it. There's one third year class in my school where 26 people do OL and 2 HL and only one A in class at mocks.

    It all depends on what comes up on the day. It could be stuff you know, might be stuff you haven't a clue about. Fact is, there is too much to learn in History. Most of the people doing the test tomorrow wont have a clue about over 1/3 of the history course but might still get A's. It all depends on what you've learnt and if it comes up or not. If you've learnt everything, which is nearly impossible, then you are garrunteed and A. If you haven't learnt everything it depends on what comes up.
